Creative Access Description
Black and white portrait landscape image with a white border of two performance artists on stage. On the left stands a white woman the sides of her head shaved and her hair pulled back, wearing dark eye shadow, a black bustier top and a short white skirt. In her right hand she seems to be holding a small object in front of her chest, while her left hand extends upward into the darkness of the room. She smiles, gazing up toward her co-performer, a tall white man with a shaved head, who also wears dark eye shadow, a stuffed white bustier top, a short skirt, and high stockings with a garter belt. The man grins, his right arm hidden behind him and his left arm extend up and toward the photographer. In front of the performers on a table sits a rectangular object with a meaty, organic texture and silver cooking pot. On the wall behind the performers is a large but indiscernible projected image and a microphone on a stand situated next to the table. The surrounding room is dark in contrast to a spotlight focused on the performers.Description
