Line Up (after Trisha), 2010

The Island, curated by Shamim Momin. Flagler Memorial Island, Miami.

I spent 5 peaceful hours in the waves performing this installation work created by Brody Condon.

The rules:

(1) Each pole must stay connected at all times, creating a line of energy the length of the poles.

(2) The movers should move slowly and constantly in a circle, like a blender with the center dancers swirling in place. They should imagine this movement to be the engine of a Dimensional Stability Machine, if the machine stops our dimension evaporates.

(3) Any viewers are to be regarded as ghosts on another plane of existence; they can be seen but not touched or spoken to
