I'll show you happiness

This half hour performance art was performed in May of 2003 at the New College of California in San Francisco.
Photos were taken by Jenny Connolly.

All performances are part of the body of work “Chemical Theatre” (November 2010-2011).  It is through this body of work that the “Painting dress” has been sculpted. Each performance ritual builds upon the previous one in a seamless transmuting imaginative narrative. During this performance art, I altered my boots and clown wig by cutting them in ritual play. I painted my dress with black paint. After cutting pieces of the dress, I attached the pieces to the stage clothesline. These actions of altering my costume are at the heart of the manifestation of the “Painting dress”. The “Painting dress” is a sigil.
