Ridgewood Ritual 2019
Testing out our new GoPro. Without sound, backdrop paintings, or large sculptures it seems people get very uncomfortable, very fast. Hence the 8+ police presence called to “the scene.” Everything worked out, very chill officers.

MAKS @ Gold Sounds
MAKS performing at Gold Sounds on 3/21/2019, a fine venue. This work explores what happens at the busy intersection of popular culture, avant garde tropes (think John Cage), and interpersonal emotional exploration. This is a dangerous intersection, many accidents – please wait for the walk light and always use your blinker. Documentation by 185668232.

MAKS @ 59th St. Terminal
Performing in the Subway for the first time. The setup was incredibly light and portable, allowing me to hit multiple locations within a day. Gonna continue in this vain alongside the larger guerrilla installs I’ve been pushing on the public.
