Whip It Good (Live Performance) | 2014 & 15
The performance Whip it good! is a "reenactment" of one of the brutal punishment methods used during
slavery. In using the same method on a white canvas, I create a simple, though contradictory, artistic act
of striking back.
The artist invites the audience to finish the painting, which leaves behind a scar-like black and white painting,
raising complex questions and thoughts.
Whip it good was first performed in Berlin 2013 at BE.BOP2013, commissioned by Art Labour Archive and
Ballhaus Naunynstrasse, and has since traveled to many different places worldwide.
