The world we live today has given many
definitions to a human being. At the same time it has also taken so much from
us. The common belief of globalization has seemingly ready a parson with
boundless possibilities as we can get in touch with every development or
weakening around the world. However the world seems a tiny nut shell which is
quite difficult to crack. Thought we can know everything that is happening, we
often can not directly impact these situations. This has happened because we are
bounded by the political and geographical border
The installation based
performance that I have presented here is the combination of my various social
and materialistic beliefs. Here I have adjusted myself on the ground
partitioning my body with a wall created by bricks. Then I have placed nails and
chilli on the ground of the lower side of my body and on the upper side I
scattered sweets on the ground. We basically experience pain but we perceive
solace; because that is what we are made to see. Furthermore, I have also
arranged two cameras capturing both the sides of my body, which is continuously
being telecasted live on the two televisions on the performance site. I have
incorporated television because it is one of the hi-tech devices that link us
with the globe, promoting the concept of globalization. Therefore, my work is
about the primordial pain that is hidden underneath the scientific complexion of
human beings.
