My collaborator and I support each others weight using only a loop of thin rope around our waists. This performance is
a metaphor for the give an take of friendship, and physically investigates the relationship between two bodies, one physically stronger than the other, and how they can find balance in order to keep each over stable. For as long as we could stand, my collaborator and I leaned back creating tension in the rope to keep us up. When one would start to weaken, the other would take more weight. This give and take lasted for fourty minutes before we both came to a mutual, nonverbal agreement to pull each other up.
