Inside
a site specific, one-on-one performance that asks who we are when we're alone.
“Am I most myself when I’m alone? If so, what does that say about me? Working with the available light of their site, the artists Inside offer us one to one encounters with(in) the privacy of others.”
– SummerWorks curator Guillermo Verdecchia
Does the public presentation of yourself differ from the self you experience in private? What’s one thing you’ll only do when you’re alone at home? If someone were to peek in on you, alone, in your bedroom, or kitchen, or garage, what might they learn about who you truly are?”
Inside is a series of site-specific one-on-one encounters in a secret location apartment that ask who we are when we’re alone, at home. Sasha and collaborator Cat and the Queen build Inside around kernels of truth, dipped in fluorescent colours – a celebration of shared humanness in all its strangeness, simplicity and beauty.
The workshop production of Inside took place in Toronto, August 9-12th, 2014.
