Untitled, Performance by Anabel Vazquez and Asma Kazmi
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Before the performance
opened to the audience I cast a plaster block around my legs. During the
performance which lasted for over an hour, I chiseled off the block freeing
myself in the end. The second performer [Anabel] walked continuously in
circles around me until the end. As I reduced the mass Anabel kept pace
with me. She would slow down or walk faster responding to the
rapidity of my activity. If I sensed fatigue in her stride I would change
my pace. Thus the two bodies were generating and transmitting
energy to one another, restrained in a pattern and responsible for each
other’s release.
~Asma Kazmi, 2004
