This is a still image of a performance. The photo is a long shot, in which the camera is high, looking down toward the gallery space. The performer is in the back corner, kneeling on the floor of a slightly raised podium and leaning over a small stringed instrument. The performer’s nose and mouth appear to be touching the strings. On the floor in front of the performer are an open laptop and an unfolded piece of legal-sized paper. Audience members are all around the gallery, with most sitting on the floor. Words, phrases, and shapes on the gallery wall and front windowsill are visible in the background.
