Performances,1985-90In 1985, while I was working on the Zeus figure, I realized that if I could put myself into my sculpture and make a sculpture that I wore, I could install my sculpture anywhere. This was the start of a performance art project that grew and developed over several years. Illustrated below is the first sculpture I wore and images of museum self-installations. The museum self-installations were unannounced visits that I made to a museum wearing my sculpture. I would walk into a museum wearing a sculpture and purchase an admission ticket. Once in the museum I would install myself throughout the museum.
