Visiting Artist 11/16 - Alexander Singh

I was really intrigued with the performance that Alexander Singh presented to us. It was really nice to see art outside the realm of photography. I did find his work a little bit confusing, maybe because I was unfamiliar with it. Singh has  a really interesting way of telling a story/narrative. I was really glad that he actually performed for us, rather than just showing us slides and dcecribing what his perfomances are like. I found him very captivating in that way, where as at times it is hard to follow other artists as they click through every slide. I really enjoyed the piece at the end, where he had a voice over for inanimate objects. By creating these simple sculptures and creating this "critique" by these other inanimate objects, there is a weird commentary on people and how we interact with things. I especially find this true for the comment they make about putting humans on pieces of wood and setting them up as sculptures.
