Performance Work
Following the death of her sister by suicide, DrC's journey into Art led her to delve into intense forms of expression of grief through physical and emotional pain.
​​​​
DrC might use a couple of aliases for the different styles of Performance Art she experiments or engages with but her main Artist name is CARU.
Here are some highlights of her performative work:
Marina Abramović: Retrospective
The Royal Academy, London, UK
(23 September 2023 to 1 January 2024)
Re-performing the following historical pieces of Marina Abramović:
Imponderabilia (1977), 1 hour;
Nude with Skeleton (2002), 2 hours;
Luminosity (1997), 30 min.
Marina Abramović: Gates and Portals
(24 September to 5 March 2023)
"Gates and Portals explores transitional states of being, with each visitor participating as a performer with a small group of others. During the exhibition visitors will encounter gates and portals that prompt contemplation of bodily awareness and elevated consciousness."
Fox&Badge, Steelyard, London, UK
(23rd June 2023)
This durational experiential immersive multisensory performative installation was CARU's final piece for her MA in Fine Art. It consisted of a rope installation with giant scented paper magnolia flowers (a reference to Marguerite Duras), in which she performed a 50min. Shibari suspension (total performance 90min., tie by Nik Yourknots).
