Under Our Skin
PAO Gallery
10/12/16
Prior to the performance the artists gave us a introduction to their body of work. Based on all they have accomplished it feels great that I got to experience a performance. They have a rich history of performance art.
The performance was great. They began by slowly and deliberately walking around the square of plastic. Then they took out the objects they had been carrying with them. The most striking part of this was when Hector began chewing and spitting out the flowers over Peña. I couldn't help but think about how humans have chewed up nature and spit it back at mother earth.
This was such a great experience that I hope Purdue would continue to do more of.
