I create poster images with simple and straight-forward descriptions of the performance advertised. A promise of a one-on-one experience involving a walk, personal stories or secrets, an improvised cooked meal, or a to-be-determined private living room performance lasting 20 minutes is all the information provided to the lucky buyer, or to the greater audiences who will never see or experience the private performance. The poster becomes the sole documentation of the performance in an act that both resists the drive to capture every performance on camera and also creates a sellable product in an object-centered, professionalized art program operating within end-stage capitalism. The performance proposal poster is a risk and an invitation to trust, to be vulnerable, attentive, present, and seen for the performer and the single audience member alike.
