Employing photographs of Incan rocks as raw building materials, Skvirsky’s live participatory performance doubles as a community action, with the audience assisting in the building of an ephemeral Incan border wall within the gallery. The participatory performance links popular narratives concerning the persistence of pre-Columbian identity with current discourses about borders, migration, and nationhood.
Performance is viewable live in Kohl Gallery and online via youtube. Reservations required for in-gallery viewing. Links and full details on Kohl Gallery's webpage.
