Sharp Hearts and Spare Parts
Performance with Louise McKissickin (USA). Titanik gallery, Turku. 1998



Andersson and McKissick fastened small red paper hearts on the audience. On the hearts they had written messages, which intention was to make people happy, for example “You have a wonderful nose” or “ I love your shoes”.
At the same time people could steer the remote controlled sperms, moving on the floor. The performance ended when Kissick pricked a big plastic heart fastened on Andersson’s breast filled with tomatoe juice.
