About 7 years ago, I stared working on this collage project in one of classes. I finally finished up the last few pieces yesterday, no clue why it took me so long.
Jen had us pick a photo of one of the emotional faces from the participants in a MoMA performance. We then made a collage with used scraps from the art studio. Swipe over to see the photo I chose. A little bit about the original performance piece: In 2010 at MoMA, Abramović engaged in an extended performance called, The Artist Is Present. Seated silently at a wooden table across from an empty chair, she waited as people took turns sitting in the chair and locking eyes with her. Over the course of nearly three months, for eight hours a day, she met the gaze of 1,000 strangers, many of whom were moved to tears. @ Montreal, Quebec
