In her work she uses various media with emphasis on video performance.
The video “I dare you to…” which was made in 2007 is composed out of seven parts. Each part is a documentation of one challenge that I had to confront. The challenges are graded from the easiest to hardest to me. Some of them are endurance challenges, some are exhibitionistic and some are very unpleasant or just gross. The main goal of this challenges was to do something I had never done before, to overcome inhibitions and fears, or in some cases just to have fun.
I would like to make it into durational video performance, where I dare myself to make new challenges to confront to, endure and/or try something I have never did in my life. By this series of performances I aim this to see, open and broaden my boundaries and my relation to the city and accidental passengers in public spaces of different cities. Therefore I dare you to two would take place in Vienna.
