The goal of this experiment was reflecting about the relationships – the love – between ourselves and objects, thought as serial products. Through long and obsessive series of performances during a whole year I developed a strong emotional connection to a product, to Lindsay the Love Doll. Every day for a year, I poured love into Lindsay – dressing her, planning my day with her, and taking her on trips in search of adventures and new friends. We travelled the world together. Our first stop: China, to find the factory where Lindsay was produced.
この実験の目的は、私たちと物との関係、つまり愛を、連続した製品として考えて反映することでした。1年間の長くて執拗な一連のパフォーマンスを通じて、私は製品、人形との強い感情的なつながりを築きました。 年間毎日、私はリンゼイに愛を注ぎました—彼女に服を着せ、彼女と一緒に彼の一日を計画し、冒険や新しい友達を探して彼女を旅行に連れて行きました。私たちは一緒に世界を旅しました。最初に立ち寄るのは中国です。リンゼイが生産された工場を見つけるためです。
