The Nine Returns to the One
Tether for an Engagement

2018

The Nine Returns to The One consists of three scores, one for each performer, and a separate score for the spectators. Guests are invited to engage with the performance exhibition by following this notation as their guide.

Tether for an Engagement is a written agreement that accompanies the performance to highlight the relationship between all parties involved: THE ART WORK (Object(s)) / PERFORMER(s)(Subject(s)), SPECTATOR(s), and THE INSTITUTION, that supports the presentation of this collective encounter.

The accompanying soundtrack, Children for or Against the Destruction of Birds, is a translation of these accumulative scores.
