Why are you doing this?!
Because I want to.
A performance by artist duo Pengelly & Page (me- Claire Prosser & Rebecca Page) in Queens Wood London.
I am standing alone in the forest. My audience: the trees, the twigs and the people I hear in the distance who have arrived in readiness for the Green Shoots show. I, Pengelly, send the question
"Why are you doing this?! through my megaphone into the forest and await a reply.
A reply comes from elsewhere in the forest, from Page;
"Because I want to!"
After each question and answer, we step forward, hunting for one another, holding onto the sound of ones echo, searching. A head spinning performance created by a simply sentence. An anger and frustration created by interrogation and never being satisfied with a just because. Just because we want to, just because we can.
