No More Broken Hearts

NO MORE BROKEN HEARTS

This is a performance piece I did a little over two years ago on the corner of 5th South and Third East in Salt Lake City. The protest itself was inspired by Miranda July's art-assignment website learningtoloveyoumore.com. I recited a 15 minute long poem-ish monologue twice one day at the corner of 5th South and State Street and again the following day in front of the Salt Lake Public Library.
The piece itself was essentially a nonsecular prayer inspired by a terribly traumatic event. It was an attempt to cope with intense pain and loneliness.
On the latter occasion, a rotund woman who appeared to be mentally disabled stood on the corner and listened to me. When I finished my the piece, she asked me, "What organization are you with?" To which I replied, "I'm not an organization." Other than that, nobody approached me. Enjoi!
