In situ PIPE

Description

Fran Cottell’s performance, in situ PIPE began with her standing in a silk white dress and white shoes on the green at the front of the gallery as if she was waiting for someone. Then the dress started to turn blue and blue leaked down her white stockings to her shoes. Then every so often a burst of blue water shot out above her head. The piece ended when her whole attire had turned sky blue. A small crowd gathered around her once her dress was wet and then others came to see what the crowd was watching.
