Vivarium (May 2016)
Vivarium is site specific performance installation piece which asks, is nature our intrinsic habitat or are we drawn to its exoticism because we are contemporary urbanites? What does it mean to co-exist with our local environment on colonized land? Sealed in a plastic box, nature is simultaneously alienated and amalgamated with the visceral sensations of the human body.
