Vomitorium

On View: February 7-February 7, 2020

This Video Viewing Room features a 3D rendering of the installation Vomitorium (2020) alongside a single-channel excerpt from the video.

Vomitorium is a tragicomic reflection on the history of metatheatre from religious ritual to livestreaming. Part of Felix Bernstein and Gabe Rubin’s ongoing analysis of madness and mimesis in drag and trans performance, this video installation is their largest-scale project to date.

The four-channel, three-hour video installation Vomitorium premiered in an exhibition of the same name, presented by The Kitchen at Queenslab from February 22–March 14, 2020. Additional information about this work is available on the exhibition press release and in an interview with the artists.
