Performance Corporal Espionage began as an exploration of desire and manifests as a mission to uncover the self-conspiracy to know a body beyond the usual identifications. It departs from the organic approach of understanding a body through anatomical weapons and gravitational conflict.
The author goes undercover in an investigation that fragments her self-perception and feeds on her doubts and dysmorphias. She will endure the lingering frustration of having two pairs of limbs desperately attached to the torso. The mission demands that she rejects the binary truths of left and right, the spatial notions of up and down and the volumetric constraints of front and back. She will calculate combinations of directions and deem them meaningless until the body itself offers new definitions. She shifts shapes to get to the bottom of this performance and allows references to create meanings she did not intend to portray.
The call is coming from inside the house!
