"birthday party" Performance Installation. University of Iowa,
Eve Drewlow Gallery.
In Conjunction with African Art Symposium IRON(Master of them all).
I was an avid collector of Iron object and was invited to create an Installation with my iron object during the Symposium. I was invited by: Hans Breder/Intermedia Arts and Allen Roberts/Anthropology, I was asked to have the installation/performance coincide with the symposium. I brought in many boxes of various objects I had collected from abandoned houses and auctions. I invited the people who came to the gallery to help create the environment. We made it with out many words as I also had an evolving sound installation I created as time went by. I made a performance in the space each evening. The participant visitors made the environment with and around me they as well made performance within the space.
