Box

Description

In the screen shows a woman and a man in front of a white box. After a while another man comes in and takes away the box. At that point the projection is stopped and the lights in the space are lit. A performer appears from the side of the screen, holding the same size box as the one in the film. The performer walks around the space holding the box, hands it to the audience, etc., and disappears behind the screen. The lights of the space turn off, the film projection continues, with the same box and the man and woman appearing again. In this performance, the awareness of the screening space is articulated by exposing the boundaries between inside and outside of the screen, and between actor and audience.
