My infamous “dragging” performance I created for The Brooklyn International Performance Art Festival show Collective Spectacle at the Gowanus Ballroom in 2013.
Nude except for chains and makeup, I dragged large cinder blocks tied to my wrists in a circle around the Gowanus Ballroom for an hour. The entire time I was whipped by performers Jenna Kline and Theresa Buchheister.
