​

Empty Red Room is a durational performance installation.

 

Fill in the gaps, the pleats, the expanses of skin. 
Fill up and blend in. 
A costume with crevices and creases, painted. 
Expanses of skin, painted. 
Hands, feet, painted. Eyes, ears, nose, painted. 
The act of creating is the act of disappearing. 
A red wall, a performer covering themself with pigment. 
Painting herself to eventually blend in.
