FILET 27th February 2019 TIMOTHY MAXYMENKO US2 | 24h Performance
US2 is a 24 hour performance piece devised by the Ukrainian artist Timothy Maxymenko. It involves two participants with different nationalities, who do not know each other, spending 24 hours in a room together. During those 24 hours, the participants have to keep communicating constantly and must write each new word they use on the gallery walls. At the end of the 24 hours, the space opens to the public and visitors are invited to join the performers and explore the wordand other forms of communication which have emerged. This piece was first performed by four pairs of participants (including Timothy Maxymenko) in four Kraków art spaces simultaneously in 2016. Timothy performed the piece in London with Iris Colomb, from 7pm on 17th March to 7pm on 18th March 2019.
