This was a meditation on sterility and contamination. The artist was thinking about the blood held in a body, by its walls (skin), and the blood held in a building, by its walls. How we infected space by inhabiting them and how the built world corrupts us. The walls bled, the performer bled, they contaminated each other.
This was at the closing ceremony of PURE, a show of over 75 artists in an empty office supply store. The show was about purity, sterility and infection. The photos/video didn’t show the absolute blinding white of the fluorescent light.
