Large Gourd

Large Gourd is a performance/video work that explores issues of control through the behavior of a depersonalized “subject” in direct opposition with broader cultural mores and the consequences that result from this conflict.

Through the mediums of performance, video and sculpture, Chicago-based artist Justin Cooper creates provocative juxtapositions that humorously explore the absurdity of the human condition through the deeply personal as well as broader social contexts.
