Performance: Jacob Graham - "Lucifer Brings Electric Light to the 1893 Chicago World's Fair”
Uploaded by Window On Hudson
Presented with The Hudson Eye, "Lucifer Brings Electric Light to the 1893 Chicago World's Fair" is a live, object puppetry performance piece. It presents the fallen angel as ‘the light bearer’, electrifying the global celebration of man’s achievements and hinting at ominous consequences for that progress. This piece plays with layers of time and considers it as subject matter, stylistic veneer, and audience perspective - the setting of the piece is 1893 Chicago, the performance style is mid-century New York City, and the audience perspective is the present (for now).
