Residue @ 98 Release is an art installation that views the act of making performance as sculptural, and what's left behind as an ongoing performance in and of itself. The piece invokes an impulsive, reactive space and approaches "release" through questions about meditative states and visceral experience.
Residue ii @ WestFest iterates on previous Residue, and on itself, in a site-responsive work made specifically for the Westbeth flea market.
