Marvin and Me,
documentation of performance piece (3 hours),
purple crushed velvet
fabric, 2 channel sound piece, ambient sound and equipment,
two sets
of headphones. Two stills, one with and one without participant.
For the duration of the reception, I
dance in headphones to “What’s Goin’ On” by Marvin Gaye.
Ambient vocal
and spoken word sounds played through speakers and permeated the space.
Another set of headphones hang nearby with the same song. Viewers who
participate can hear
what I am dancing to and dance along by wearing the
other set of headphones.
