Current Work
Who's afraid of Jacques Derrida? "Mourning Derrida" is a video “dialogue” with French Deconstructionist philosopher Jacques Derrida-- a new work that steps outside the conventional boundaries of Performance. A loving and joyful homage, Perry’s artist’s talk is a portrait of the creative process that goes beyond the ordinary definitions of “Performance” by deconstructing Deconstruction itself-- with intelligence, humor and charm. |
