We Don't Know What to Say
Performance
St. Petersburg, Russia, 2006; Tel Aviv, Israel, 2010
collaboration with Joseph Connelly as Gordon & Gordon Art

We Don't Know What to Say was first performed in 2006 in St. Petersburg, Russia.  136 25hr candles with the words 'and we don't know what to say' (in Russian) printed on a sticker placed on the metal candle holder were distributed around the central part of St. Petersburg, Russia - along the streets, river and canals. Beginning at midnight, we lit a candle and then walked until the flame was barely visible and lit the next. The piece took 8 hours to complete, leaving a ring of light around the city.

In 2010 we performed this piece in Tel Aviv, Israel.  136 25hr candles with the words 'and we don't know what to say' (in Hebrew) were distributed around the central part of the city - along the streets, alleys, and sea shore. We began at 11 pm and finished 8 hours later.
