Relieving the American Dream
(collaboration with Robert Edmondson), non-fiction, 16mm/Super8 expanded cinema performance
A multi-projector film loop performance whose loops articulate and deconstruct our American Dream in projected (and therefore, architectural) space. The performance activates and reworks the tremulous relationship between moments of the mundane, monumental, and material, all filmed during a road trip made across the United States.
