“Welcome to the garden. You are invited to play a game.

1. Draw a picture on my back.

3. Message me back to tell me if I got it right or not.

4. Repeat until I am correct.”

This performance seeks to portray the conditions of intimacy in a digital age, revealing the anxieties of a generation in which virtual connections play as much a role in relationships as physical encounters. Signalling Venus recreates the feelings of physical information lost in digital translation between the participant and the performer through this intimate yet elusive encounter.
