Type: Performance
Design: Isabella Bruno
Location: Local Projects Gallery in Queens, NY
From the press release: "Join Isabella as she steps against Satan, runs the rosary, climbs to nirvana, exercises as enlightenment, sweats away her sins, assists her yoga, runs from evil spirits, runs past her bad thoughts. The artist is seeking health against hell, come bear witness."
I performed two Saturdays in a row, for the duration of the opening and closing parties (about 2.5 hours each event). There were no breaks. I moved and stepped to the inspiring sounds of my neighboring Hispanic Pentecostal church for the duration of the performance. Thanks to the Jim Smith for his amazing sound editing skills and Dese'Rae Stage for the unparalleled photos.
