Performance Video

If a lot people are about, I always hide, or remain in the background. In the performance I force myself to do something in front of the audience. I sit in front of the people and cannot hide my nervousness. I fidget and thrash around, my movements jerky and uncontrolled, my eyes darting around restlessly.
