“Wash Day”, 2009. Performance. One time performance for SQUAT exhibition at 125 Skillman Avenue, Brooklyn, NY.
Using clothing found in the abandoned space, viewers are invited to participate by squatting and looking through the pile of clothes for an article of clothing of their choice. Once a selection is made they give it to the Wash girl (performed by the artist) to hand wash. The Wash girl will then hang it on the clothes line to dry. At the end of the evening, when the people are ready to pick up their clothes the Wash girl will take it off the clothes line and if it’s not dry she may iron it and bag it for them to take home.
