Eating with Your Hands Task

Hi All,

Come eat pea soup and brownies this Thurs the 24th at 12:30 at Cabinet Magazine with me and Adia Millett as part of our project You Are Here.

Eating with Your Hands Task: We will cook Sol Lewitt's favorite lunch of pea soup and brownies for 40 staff and visitors to eat without utensils around a communal table. FREE

Come to Mass Moca this Saturday the 26th and sit in meditation with Adia and/or dance with me.

6 Hours Sitting Still, 6 Hours Dancing without Music Task: In the Sol LeWitt Retrospective, from opening to closing hours, Adia sits in silent mediation while I dance throughout the galleries without music. Staff and visitors are invited to join us for all or some of day.

All part of the exhibition An Exchange with Sol LeWitt a two-part exhibition curated by Regine Basha. I hope to see you there!

About You Are Here

De-friend five friends from Facebook. Walk backwards to the bathroom today. Put yourself in a closet and close the door (light on or off) for 10 minutes.

These are tasks created and executed by collaborators Stephanie Diamond and Adia Millett in an on going interactive project between the two artists. For Exchange with Sol Lewitt ,You Are Here offers visitors and staff the opportunity to take part in the artist’s process.

Through daily tasks emailed to the staff at Mass Moca and Cabinet Magazine, You Are Here attempts to bring seemingly arbitrary actions into the forefront of consciousness by encouraging participants to do something different. Designed to express vulnerabilities, and to heighten participants’ awareness of themselves and the world around them, You Are Here investigates the inevitability of choice, and generates unexpected scenarios.
