2011

A perfomative reading of all the facebook status she posted when she was 11 years-old. Through Facebook posts and by using the computer as a kind of prosthesis, the artist begins to recall her first boyfriend, how she first became a Justin Bieber fan, the early stages of self-exposure, and the online grieving process for her mother, who was battling cancer.

Performed at Perdu during Organised Seduction.

Organised Seduction takes on a labor of negativity operating in the structural analogy of art and money. That this activity is a kind of nightwork, deprived and antagonistic, suggests a recalcitrance immanent to its form and its alignment with figures of anti-social, reproductive labor who labor under the cover of night: the nightphilosopher, the nightshiftworker, the sexworker, the mother, the mourner, the renter. If critique is a mode of negativity, inconvenience, and discontinuity, this program offers work that seeks out its contingency and necessity.
