THE DISAPPEARING SELF, FIRST ACT       

This artwork exists, but at the same time, it is disappearing; it has a beginning and an end. It is an essential part of the performer’s self; it has merged with her, although it can act and sustain itself.

The artwork is a performance installation piece that deals with the disappearance of the self, but not in the sense of fading away; on the contrary, disappearing as inhabiting the “in-between.” Some vertical screens interpose themselves, revealing a figure that enters, the same one that repeats itself to become more prominent until the actual figure, the author, enters the screen and becomes part of the analog-digital performance—the ongoing battle of navigating screens to seek attention, information, entertainment, or nothing at all.
