Union

About This Project

We embrace. We are joined at the heads and groins by piercings and chains, slowly we part. Our eyes locked on each other. In time, the chains begin to stretch to their limits, and then, our flesh then stretches too.
We start to remove the needles in ritual unison.

Despite the pain and blood, our faces remain impassive. The ritual must be observed.
When all the needles have been removed, we stare at each other. Wearing our wounds, born anew.

We gently and slowly walk back to each other. Locked in each other’s gaze. As we grow closer, we can hold the gaze no longer and look over each other shoulders and into the lights behind us. Our bodies touch once more and are joined in a bondage of blood.

The cycle has been completed, the bodies have been changed forever.

Duration – 30 Minutes
