One Way or the Other

An outside one day event on the former estate of Finnish national writer Elias Lönnroth
curated by Pekka Kainulainen and organized by Esa Turtiainen
There was a long path along the main house towards the barn
I choose that path for my performance "One Way or the Other"
I took a stone and wrapped it in tape, gluing side outwards
I took one end of a woolen string from my mouth and tied it around the stone
walking backwards till the string unrolled totally
I was ca 15 meters from the stone and kept walking backwards
tension was high, the stone moved about one meter then the string broke
I put tape with gluing side outwards around my mouth and kissed the stone
the stone stuck to my mouth and i walked it backwards towards the barn and dropped it there
