Portrait of a Girl: A motorized pair of girl's legs takes the emotional temperature of the room and makes her presence known through loud (she's wearing tap shoes) and erratic stomping and tapping on household furniture. Responding to the presence of viewers, this girl alternates between aggressive, attention-getting tantrums and seemingly uncontrolled shaking and jerking. This piece is one of three sets of girls' legs that are all part of Misbehaving: Media Machines Act Out a project supported by the Creative Capital Foundation. Aluminum girl's legs, shoes, cafe table, glass top, motors, custom electronics, wood.
