Purgation

About This Project

An act of devotion and trust. Love and betrayal. An Indoctrination.

I kneel before a tank of water. She comes beside me and strokes my hair gently. Then, without warning, pushes my head underwater for duration before violently pulling my head up.

I gasp for air and she allows me this for a few seconds before forcing me under again. She pulls my head out more gently this time. Allows me to recover before pushing me under once again.

The process continues until she judges that it is enough. She leaves, and in time, I gather myself and leave the space as well.

Duration – 15 minutes
