The Right Hand Doesn’t Know What the Left Hand Is Doing
Proposal for a performance project. An ambidextrous artist has been asked to sketch and write – using both hands simultaneously – a set of associations based on five separate prompts:
• Your money or your life
• Compromise formation
• Reconciliation under duress
• Anthropocene
• Retraction

The project is part of a cluster of works produced by the artist collective, adversorecto, in which duality is investigated as inversion, reversal, contradiction, retraction, parallax, the double, the rhizome, the split subject, and so forth. This cluster of work is being developed for future exhibition. The required set-up for this particular presentation includes table+chair, notebook, pens, camera (bird’s-eye mounted) for live feed, projector, and presentation space with white wall for projection.
