Dimensions Vary
The organic pod structure depicted in this video emerges from a typical backyard picket fence where there spawns vine-like tubular forms reminiscent of a wild jungle plant growing out of control. The documented performance frames the artist as protagonist as she victoriously escapes from the plant's over sized pod resembling the form of a yellow newborn flower. As a hunter's trap well hidden in its own camouflage, First Strike, Last Dance mirrors the innate strategies of survival necessary during military and ecological warfare.
