Performance, November 2010
MB # 7 - The X Show is a simulacrum of a talk show. There is a presenter interviewing an artist. The identity of the guest is not revealed, it appears as an animal totem, an animal-statue, devoid of vitality. His personality and identity remaining unknown. Through the dissonance between personality (artist) and appearance (animal totem) the viewer's attention focuses on the speech portraying thought and brought to the surface by the presenter’s questions inducing a discussion on philosophical, political and artistic topics.
