Emily Loving's MFA Thesis exhibition, "Nine Cents A Copy," at CentralTrak.
Saturday, April 28 from 8pm-10pm
As part of the HARAKIRI: To Die For Performances series, photographer Emily Loving will be creating a ephemeral environment via photos of performance duo, Slik Stockings, who will also be inhabiting the space.
Exploring femininity, female identity, and the body through a temporary lens, Loving's work deals with memory, the loss or passing of a moment. Together with Slik Stockings, the artists are creating an interactive and immersive experience that forces the performers to confront their own image.

HARAKIRI: To Die For Performances
a collaboration between performance artists and visual artists
Harakiri is a ceremonial disembowelment specifically performed in front of spectators. This public self-execution creates a ritual of performance in the act of death. An idea that is at the basis of all performance--every moment you step on the stage could be your last; if you do not leave your soul out there for all to witness, if you do not die with every performance, have you lived honorably?
