Hunk, & Dora

An interactive performance and installation involving one woman inside of a 14-foot paper brick tower. Over 2,000 bricks were made from handmade paper of abaca, cotton, and linen, then glued in sections and hung from the ceiling. 14-foot tower, 6-foot doorway. The performance involved drawing comic portraits of each guest onto loose bricks, given away to over 100 people. Another self-portrait in a series, this was a manifestation of the interior walls we build inside of ourselves for protection. Generously supported by the Albert P. Weisman Memorial Scholarship Fund at Columbia College Chicago. Columbia College Chicago, April 2006. Performance duration: 4 hours.
