This performance does not exist as a performance. It only exists as a memory of what has happened. Stasis and its multiplicitous artistic applications­—as registered in the photographic document, two-dimensional image, sculptural construction and semaphoric coding—function, here, as vestigial stand-ins for the original action. By imposing exhibitionary static onto the performative stage, memory and its ricochet effects assume closer proximity to real world experience, altering, shaping and morphing our sense of reality and shared experience—its dialectically factual and fleeting nature—which, in the absence of primary formation, begs the question of witnessing:

Witness. Two. The recognition of an internal rhythm that this set of circumstances is governed by.

Witness. Three. The moment of said recognition.

Witness. Four. The inability to escape its outcomes. Surrender. Compliance. Growth.

Witness. Five.
