I love you/I hate you
Around the middle of the workshop I produced a short video called I love you/I hate you or ‘the human condition’, in which I am sitting back-to-back with myself, with one side literally hitting herself and the other repeating ‘I love you’. in the end these two are supposed to reconcile with each other. Towards the end of the workshop, I did a casual performance in which I made a lot of effort to dress myself up like a goddess, and then went and sat at different locations. The process of taking the whole day to dress up and honor myself as a goddess was cool. The photographs that came out of this goddess project were meant to portray the stillness and omnipresence of this entity within any surrounding. As is usual in my work, I tried to put what I experienced during the workshop in to these works, even though I could not manage the execution to perfection.
