How does it feel to be a fiction? New Haven Virus (May 11-June 30, 2018)

"Viral" text, digital performance, public art installation and participatory reading


The third iteration, How does it feel to be a fiction? New Haven Virus (May 11-June 30, 2018), was part of my solo exhibition Off Scene at Artspace (New Haven, CT) as well as the New Haven International Festival of Arts&Ideas (see https://www.artidea.org/event/2018/3419).  For this iteration, the text considered the fiction of historical memory and national belonging. It contains three comonents: a gallery installtion at Artspace (New Haven), and a public art installation in downtown New Haven, and participatory performance on the New Haven Green (a reading of every poem written in English entitled "America").
