Performance and wearable sculpture
In this piece we explore the idea of balance using special sculptural shoes, a particular “high heel”. Each different models represent different types of behaviour: she in the red sandal is a pleasant character; the aggressive one wears the rough boots; and the helpless one sports the high-heeled 'prosthetic' boots. The sexiness of the imagery is at odds with the brutality of the instruments being worn or by which the performers are surrounded.
​
The performance questions behaviour structures and mechanisms that might be established in different kinds of relationships, potentially between good and evil. Using the physical limitations and conditions as a metaphor for inner limitations, conflicts that may cause suffering or pain. The performance is initially set up like a battle with the scenery being destroyed by the end. Carefully choreographed, it follows a strict order, which eventually dissolves into chaos.
