By repeating the gesture of drinking I intended to create rhythm and a sense of stillness. The viewer is forced observe the little details behind the action and patterns that occur. I also wanted to draw upon themes of endurance by drinking an abnormal amount of water. Making my performance longer will help push that concept. My classmates thought that introducing the bowl was an interesting idea and I’ll be sure to keep it in further iterations. I am going to think more about how I can drink water in ways that are unexpected or unconventional because that’s what seemed to interest people most.
