Please Take a Seat

2025
Performance
Duration: 40’00”


The performance begins with piles of wood hanging on the walls, almost as if slicing the space in half. The performer then takes some of the wood and assembles it with their body, becoming a chair, a tool, an object or an apparatus.

As the performance goes on, a video is playing repeatedly on the wall with a broken radar sound effect.

The video incorporates the space of Studio 11 on the fifth floor of Parsons East, the site where the performance Please Take a Seat took place. It explores the potential of chairs, bodies, forms, tools, objects, and apparatuses as modular units that occupy or erase space.
