Shoes, shoes and more shoes!

We performed our final piece Thursday for a duration of around two and half to three hours. Dressed in funeral attire we transported the shoes from the drop off zone to the back of the grandstand. Then we proceeded to lie amongst them whilst reciting texts we had memorised. After a period of time we rose up and then took the shoes back to the drop off zone but this time pairing them off and lining them up neatly. This allowed our group to show the grandstand’s use as a mosque as well as it’s possible use as a mortuary.
