Numiniama, loop, ©2003
Numiniama is viewed through a peephole that has been
installed in a pre-existing structure. In past installations,
Numiniama has been installed in a gallery receptions desk, a
dinner table for a special event and in a writing desk for a
private collection.
Looking inside the small hole, the viewer sees a fast-paced
fragmented video of a man eating a person's foot. The
image are reminiscent of a piranha eating voraciously and evokes
questions of the madness of what is hidden underneath the table
where society has told us not to look or more pointedly inside
the dangerous territory of our desires. The sound is a high-pitched
buzzing sound that races and mimics the erotic anxiety and psychological
drama of the performer.
