Description
As a San Francisco-based multimedia performance artist, Guillard (Artist in Residence in 1991) uses the unique pattern, colors, and air of the Marin Headlands as a theater space to stage the emotions that appears out of images sculpted in space and time. Her three-set, site-specific piece highlights the intimate environment and Landscape of the Headlands' interaction with the human form: from the Gymnasium at the Headlands to the hills to the infinite horizon of the ocean at Rodeo Beach. Guillard wants to stage the metaphor of the rituals of life as a procession. This nomination is important as it is an early video documentation of the artistic processes that were produced in the Marin Headlands by artists in residences.
