Staying Alive

Mapping The Violence

614 stumps of freshly cut trees were mapped or frottaged on rolls of transparent paper with graphite during this three month performance. The final part of the performance was made in the main pedestrian area when the resulting drawings were rolled out. They were shown to the public as hard evidence and as symbols of the violent way in which most of us live in contemporary times.
