MILLENNIAL BURN II SOUNDARTWORK


MILLENNIAL BURN II PERFORMANCE

 

In the Millennial Burn Part II, I installed the ashes from the Burn in the museum. This area featured a sound artwork which asked viewers what action they could take to end fear, hate, greed, ignorance, and violence; the five things most often cited for banishment in MB Part I. Viewers then moved to a water ritual area, where they thought this action into water.

On New Years Eve1999, I produced the Millennial Burn Part II Video/Performance where I was buried in the ashes and then had these ashes washed from my body using the ritual water as a purification for our entrance into the new millennium.
