  • Thought Experiment, a time-specific and participatory performance created by David Page specifically for Subversive Play exhibition at Structura Gallery, curated by Izabel Galliera
    Page’s performance intends to explore the contentious yet necessary relationship between control and agency. The performance consists of restraint suits designed and sewn by the artist out of vinyl, felt and canvas in which two human volunteers are dressed, then immobilized onto boards and counterbalanced at sixty degrees to one another. Page refers to the restraining suits as “sarcophagus-like cover, which necessitates a device for ventilation and cooling.” He adds hand-operated bellows that invite the participation of viewers in activating them to ensure the people inside the suits are able to breath and are comfortable.
    Performers: Emona Ilieva, Gordan Koev

    Being strapped to a board and having a vinyl tarp secured over that. Two layers of restraints that one cannot get out of on their own. The only thing missing are padlocks. I'd like to volunteer.

    I wonder what the people in the suits must have felt like. It looks like a unique experience to be in that. I would kinda like to try it actually.

    I'm trying to understand the point, and I think I'm starting to get it. Is it like a light introductory to some aspects of the BDSM for those who are not familiar with what it is? Presumably, to emphasize the feeling that your life literally depends on someone you trust applying some work in order to keep you alive?

    Is one bellows to feed air in to the suit, and the other to remove air from the suit? That would create a need for coordinated teamwork between the two assistants.
    Beautiful.

    hi please let me know what is being artisitcally shown in the vid which is good and clear. its all a cute kinda bondage session and it may be quite enjoyable - do they all enter subspace over the time in session ? please give me a comment

      I am confused by it. It suggested a form of bondage but it could equally have been a form of inertia whilst travelling in a space vehicle. Depends on which angle you view it. Most people seem to be going for the BDSM angle ! Do you think you would enjoy it ?

      It depends on the environment and who you are with, your state of mind and how long you are in it.
      From experience, left like that for 12 hours or more it can feel like your floating and safe.
      But you need real trust in the person doing it.

      When I’m doing it it’s tight safe warm and comfortable. It feels good to sleep in it. It’s like floating a couple feet off the ground. But usually makes me fall asleep

      the two people inside the costumes are young actors; the others are visitors

      @@structuragallery7347 It would be very exciting if patrons of the exhibit were selected to experience the feeling.
      Perhaps, even be part of a random drawing, as part of their ticket purchase. My BFF and I would love to watch, then be selected to participate, experiencing all aspects of the installation.

      The breathing of the actors depends on the participants in the performance, on the audience, on us. How far will our desire to rule go? Game or truth?

      And they shouldn't be airtight. It is an artwork about control and being isolated. Like one of his more previous works called security theatre.
      You are isolated from the influences of world and secure. But you change freedom für this feeling of security.
