PARA/SEL/LLEL/VES is a new performance work by Jeremiah Barber that continues his investigation of the impossibility of fully seeing the self. Since 2008, Barber has created a series of detailed and fragile body replicas that are destroyed or collapsed in the course of time or in a performative action. The body replicas present a volatile view of the artist's perspective on the body and its limitations in exploring the beyond.
For PARA/SEL/LLEL/VES, Barber's body replicas are further fragmented and will fall during the performance as through a slow-motion limbo. A custom-built mirroring pool and a table of spools unthreading provide the stage for the performance.
Audience members are welcome to come and go during this two-hour durational performance, which will undergo a gradual transformation throughout the evening.
