Helping is a participatory performance artwork with clothing that pushes the boundaries of how far someone is willing to help, and at what point too much help becomes harmful.
Teresa Ascencao | The Laundry Series utilizes clothing and Ascencao's own body as its primary subjects. The works are personal struggles with clothing that expand the investigation beyond gender and sexuality, into explorations of identity as related to poverty, capitalism and “Otherness.” The Laundry Series is expressed as ritualized acts and sculptural forms through the mediums of photography and video and a first-time public performance.
