body smoke

Icelandic grass, paper, twine, and a candle flame Performance: (20’00”) , (1’00”)
I collected Icelandic grass and wrapped it in twine to form a wand. Using a candle, I ignited the
grass to produce smoke. The smoke marked a sheet of paper as I moved my body
underneath, weaving myself from one end to the other.
