I
film myself walking in a trash, wearing classy golden
stilettos. Daniel A. Doneson writes a text
about this video-performance and reads it while video
is projected.
"...Cliche like its UrText is a parable, pointing
to the question, What does it look like,
the self-transcendence of art?...
"...Does it mean art has been rendered a thing
of the past? That it must fade into the darkness
of a final twilight? So much stock-piled trash, worn
out cliches? Or does it not point out that
art has completed the circle of its metaphysical destiny
and has renentered the dawn of an
origin in which not only its destiny but the very destiny
of humanity could be put in question in
an initial manner?..."
