Here is a preview of the performance video piece from November 2009 at Johalla Projects. This spontaneous and playful painting performance was created in studio. Colorful paint jousting matches and expressive handball games were activated while working with tennis balls, mops, brushes. Original and found video montages were included in final piece featuring a fashion model and burlesque dancer while exploring several surreal glamour themes of modern day Americana.
