two, nine, five and three
This work was comprised of several actions in which different groups of people blew up latex structures (reconcstructed weather balloons). In each action, individual effort and breath filled the object, allowing it to take on elegant and comical shapes that could allude to language, organic sensual forms and/or molecular structures. The actions overtook the spaces they inhabited, pushing bodies apart, morphing into one single object/space/language/body.
