A Resource for Performing Artists, Scholars and Audiences.

My name is
Treiops Treyfid. I am a Performance Artist living and working in Los Angeles, Ca. My work is mostly conceptual in nature including a public intervention aspect. I employ simple and convoluted technology, costumes, and audio.
I design my performances first with a very simple script. The details become realized over time as I conceptualize the piece. I carry the idea in my head until all the problems are worked out. There rarely is any real concrete written or…

CONTEMPORARY PERFORMANCE TXTS--Heather Warren-Crow
I am a performance artist and sound artist based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin (where I am a professor of art theory/practice). My solo, gallery-based performance pieces both critique and embrace representations of identity in the mass media. I join the vernacular of low art (the language of pop music, social networking websites, and Internet memes) with the rhetoric of body art to address issues pertaining to American youth and femininity. Alternately playful, tragic,…

Answers as a Member Spotlight for the week of Feb 6-12, 2011

My works also stand for the art of the encounter and the exploration of new artistic potential beyond the predictable and imaginable. These operate through devised performance that is mostly interpersonal, relational and process driven. The objectives regarding content and final form are often developed through dialogue and collective reflection throughout the creative process.…
