Privilege of Removal
2016
Performance/ Video
Fort Myers, FL

In “Privilege of Removal” I challenge how we observe, react, and respond to social and political issues. We watch real life behaviors of physical, verbal, and moral abuse on T.V and computer screens, and instead of rejecting, we justify and accept them as  socio-political norms. By literally throwing dead fish at a pane of glass, I act as a violent exhibitionist and remind the viewer of our silent voyeuristic nature. I smashed dead fish against the barrier that separates the world we live in from the world we witness.
