AGGRESSIVE GESTURES (2018)

 

This work is composed of two parts: a post-it installation in an elevator and a live performance. Both pieces reflected upon aggressive/violent gestures present in contemporary society, particularly spotlighting on passive-aggressive behavior. In this work, Tsuchimoto imbued the indirect expression of hostility including negative connotation, subtle insult, silent treatment, and intentional manipulation.
