Performance Art

Performance art is an art form that combines visual art with dramatic performance and in this case, on an outside platform. The public view is the audience when it comes to performance arts. Its a concept that is not always understood by the public, but in a sense thats a good thing. If it were understood and everyone knew what was happening, the art would be less like art, and more of a performance without meaning.

Today, Niya and I chose to combine all three activities into one big performance piece in and around the Georgetown campus. For starters, having never done anything like this before, it was actually an enlightening experience being able to fool the watchful public eyed into something that was completely fake, rather just an act or performance. The looks that we received from every person we passed were along the lines of ridiculous and obscene. But because it was all fake, and we weren't actually crazy, it was fun and just a really good time.
