More from Croatia soon, but we performed the first “Sentimental Construction” here before guests started arriving, and I’m not sure it could have gone any better. Watch the video!
Sentimental Construction #1, part of The Wireframe Series
site-specific, publicly performed “spaces,” made of rope (2007), support by iCommons
These are ephemeral arrangements that, nonetheless, carve out space and frame their various contexts; they are “sentimental” in the tensions they create between sadness and playfulness, nostalgia and possibility, construction and emergence, the pre-formed and the per-formed.
More flickr photos here. Thanks to Joy Garnett for her video space, as well as all the performers / documentarians / collaborators: JC Bukenya, Tomislav Domis, Joy Garnett, Ana Husman, Kathryn Smith, Tim Whidden (MTAA) and Jaka Zeleznikar.

How interesting. Lovely to see the inhibition of the children creating a game from such basic materials.
