The National Stage

The National Stage

In process

A disembodied eye scans a blueprint following a seemingly invisible being/ghost. He moves through the Backstage, the Coat Check and the Orchestral Pit. Footsteps, bangs, crashes, and music can be heard. Spooky pink text appears, speaking only in onomatopoeias: uh huhs, hahas, and sighs. The ghost decides to perform a play. After writing the play, creating the costume, and establishing the set, he performs, faking his death on stage for the absent audience (absent except for my video viewers, of course). Victorious, he walks off stage. The video loops.

This project and the associated travel to Budapest, Hungary, is funded the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston Traveling Fellowship.
