ORGANIC LIFE
Action, delegated performance
2002
Space Festival, ON gallery, Poznań, Poland
26 min
In this action, only one of the two performers was present at the gallery.
The other, Volha, was located 600 kilometers from the gallery.
The performer called the gallery on a cell phone, which someone from the
audience was asked to answer. The performer offered the audience to
perform various tasks - actions together with the performer present in
the gallery. These were fragments or gestures from Bergamot’s previous
and future performances. After some time, the performer stopped
controlling the situation. The boundary between the performers and
the audience blurred, and after a fight that lasted several minutes, the
„performer” was thrown out of the gallery by the „audience.”
