Tether/Reel, 2014
to and fro
Artspace Aotearoa, Auckland
A durational performance which played on the relationships between institutional structures, artists and audiences. I was attached to the gallery wall by 6 flesh hooks, bisecting the space with my body and rope which I held taught by continuously leaning toward the wall facing me.
Interactive performance, nylon rope, steel hooks, hand crank.

The audience could choose to turn the crank in order to reel me in or lengthen the rope and allow me to meet the other wall that I strained towards.
