BURIED 

BURIED, 2010

I created a steel and glass coffin in my basement that I then climbed into and had someone cover me with dirt until I could no longer move. I then filmed the experience of me trying to get out of the coffin as it cracked from under me and then displayed the video as an installation work. This performance and final product represents the fear and frustration of being weighed down by uncertainty and boundaries.
