Thoroughbred

2014
PERFORMANCE, SECTOR 2337 CHICAGO, IL

Four performers step onto treadmills in a white-walled Chicago gallery space and work themselves to exhaustion. The treadmills, which are controlled by the artist, push the small group of runners to their physical limit. What starts in a beautiful unison ends in dramatic fashion as the performers struggle to keep pace.
