I wAS ONE OF US (2022)

6:34 min. New York City. November 19, 2022.

"I was one of us" visualizes the power dynamics within a society where fear and oppression are the norm, and the vulnerability of the individual in the face of systemic control.

The act of singing in unison symbolizes the hope and defiance that arises in the face of oppression. The figure in black selects victims in random order. He represents the oppressive force, whose arbitrary actions and ruthless methods create a sense of constant fear and uncertainty. The use of tape to silence the performers underscores the brutal and dehumanizing nature of this force.

As the performers are gradually silenced, the piece becomes increasingly tense and ominous, reflecting the sense of impending doom that often accompanies oppressive regimes. The final, solitary voice represents the last vestiges of resistance, and its abrupt cessation serves as a reminder of the high cost of dissent in such a society.

"1-100" takes place in a white room filled with red balloons, each numbered from 1 to 100. A black-clad figure randomly chooses a ball from a lottery box, inspect the number, and pop the corresponding balloon. The sound of the explosions rattles my nerves as I cling to the balloon in my arms.
