Trifid Narrative 1976
Photo Credits: Babette Mangolte
In this, and the following 7, two photographs are juxtaposed for this website presentation. During the performance, the two slides were simultaneously projected in all 8 sections. The photographs show the performers walking the streets below Canal Street from opposite directions, towards the entrance doors of 401 Broadway. I asked Babette Mangolte to shoot us so that over the 8 photographs of each performer, we are also walking across the slide projections. I walk from the left side of the slide to the right, Neil walks from right side of the slide to the left, until we meet at the entrance in the center.
