petra cortright’s performance piece called mononucleosis is currently being executed in berlin, germany.
cortright is an californian artist who, due to lack of instutional support from her native santa barbara, was forced to move to berlin and produce this 4 weeks mononucleosis performance.
petra has allowed infectious viruses to reside in her body after which she will attempt to kill the same viruses with human produced chemicals.
her mononucleosis piece investigates the relationship between the society and individual which is particularly inspiring in berlin, germany, after the fall of the berlin wall.
i am not sure if berlin is bigger than new york.
