| Abstract: | Two works were presented for the exhibition: 1. 5100: Pentagon was a performance consists of flash mob of voluntaries, arriving in the gallery space to do perform gestures according to a common sound track, to which they have already been exposed through digital media. The principle of flash mob - is the participants’ shared agreement, performance without a leader, participants acting on arrival then disappearing. Participants performing gestures being repeated differently each time by different participants throughout the exhibition period. 2. Silent Drum: Embroidered image on cotton fabric 345x297 cm.
