Eye to Eye
by David Cross

Performance at The Physics Room

5pm - 8pm, Thursday 11th July, 2002

Eye to Eye was an extended duration performance piece by Wellington based artist David Cross. This piece was the latest in a series of works the artist produced in Australia and New Zealand, exploring the relationship between the body, abjection and sexuality. Working at the intersection of performance, video and installation, Eye to Eye examined the pleasure and pain of seeing, speculating on new ways of understanding the body as a volatile entity.
