The Embodiment of a Chained-Breath, Performance, 00:03:25, 2014.
The whole performance happens inside a Walmart plastic bag and the only viewer is a small camera inside my mouth that captures the event. The performance goes on by inhaling my own exhale to a point I lose control due to self suffocation.
As an artist I always ask myself for how long it is possible to continue making art in an isolated environment. The more I ask the more I find the idea of isolation as a relative notion that can change from case to case that can have various effects in different situations. Suffocation can kill a person or sometimes can easily cure a disturbing and annoying hiccups.
