“Thousand Dollar
Project #2” 2007, Performance project
at a show “Women Artist in Action”
Starting from Downtown San Francisco, I
walked to the City Hall where the gallery
was located. I asked random people from
the street to ask me to do an action for
them, such as singing a song, being a chair
for the person to sit on, or falling down
to the floor so they can enjoy my gravity
dance. I asked the person if they were satisfied
with my performance, If the person said
that they were completely satisfied, I wrote
a thousand dollar check. If the person was
less satisfied, I wrote a five hundred dollar
check, and so on. All the checks were post-dated
a thousand years from the day of the performance.
