BALLOON GODS (2012)

Performance in collaboration with Kyle Butler, Alice Alexandrescu and Kate Gaudy for HALLWALLS

BALLOON GODS was a performance intended to induce a large crowd of 1000+ partygoers to collectively create, celebrate, and then ultimately destroy an enormous mutated balloon animal.

Over four thousand twisty balloons were lovingly inflated (special thanks to Joanna Gillespie) and subsequently sacrificed during this event.
