The Artists as Candles, 1996
We cast ourselves as candles in a mixture of beeswax and paraffin with a wick running through the center from head to feet. We lit the candles at the beginning of our show in P.P.O.W Gallery in New York and we let the candles burn and run their course throughout the exhibition.
Our candle bodies slowly melted away for the duration of the show.
