I make performance art even when you think I don’t. My most interesting work won’t happen until after I’m dead - I hope it’s good but I’ll never know. I have been banned from Tinder, sued by the estate of Hannah Wilke, and awarded Miss Social Impact in a national beauty pageant. I would like to go viral, break a Guinness World Record, and be in an actual episode of Black Mirror instead of making my own​​​​
