laughing
room:
This performance
installation piece was conceived
around the overwhelming, anxiety
and fear connected to being laughed
at. In this piece viewers enter
a completely darkened room, which
is lit by the slow erythematic projections
of giant mouths. The images are
projected across a nude figure tucked
at the end of a 25-foot white hallway.
The room is filled with the haunting
sounds of laugher. The laughter
transition from a soft quite nervous
giggle to the cackling of an entire
room of uncontrollable laughter.
The figure sits vulnerable and fragile
with the sound of laughter filling
the space, the image projections
revealing the figure, while the
viewer chooses where to observe
from, how long to stay, and when
to leave the piece.
