Church- A collaborative performance and installation, Human Resources, Los Angeles 2012
“The performance will be losely based on the structure of a catholic
mass: an entrance procession, a priest, music, other speakers, an exit
procession.
The idea is to create an experience that is a new church for
freaks, punks, and queers. ”
