Knees and Votes
[2008, interactive performance, 10 minutes, ExchangeRate2008 organized by Elana Mann, at Remy’s and Sea&Space Galleries, Los Angeles]
Guiding the audience through the geography within and surrounding Afghanistan, to the movement and childhood tune of Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes / Knees and Toes, mapped onto the body. This performance at Remy’s was given directly following Barack Obama’s acceptance speech on the night of the US Presidential elections on November 4, 2008. The following morning I departed for my media embed with US soldiers in Afghanistan – www.danielleadair.com/first-assignment.
