Performance and Symbolic Inquiry
Pope.L is widely recognized for his endurance-based performances, specifically his series of eRacism "crawls." These works included the Tompkins Square Crawl, where he crawled through a gutter in a business suit, and the Great White Way, a twenty-two-mile crawl along Broadway. His performance ATM Piece involved him being attached to a bank door by an eight-foot length of Italian sausage while wearing a skirt made of U.S. dollar bills. In his work Trinket, a monumental U.S. flag was subjected to constant wind from industrial fans, and in The Beautiful, performers dressed as Superman performed a choreographed crawl. His art often utilized everyday objects, reimagined as symbols to reflect on societal norms, consumption, and social class.
