Feeling Bleached’ is a piece of performance art which may be developed into a
piece of theatre, it stems from the distinct belief we have as children that
anything is possible and how we tragically lose this in adulthood as our
memories bleach and fade. With contributions from the audience, this
interactive piece revealed the frailty of a happy thought but its undeniable
value when it truly makes you smile. This piece was influenced by J.M.
Barrie’s Peter Pan, the psychoanalytic concept of Tabula Rasa and by personal
memories.
