This C-print documents a performance which took place on July 12, 2008, at the Maria dello Spasimo, a Gothic church in Palermo, Italy. The performance featured a group of women covered in white makeup combined with sculptures contrasting the life and warmth of human bodies with the cold stillness of the sculptures, highlighting the melancholy and fascination of sculpture, and raising questions about the nature of what is real and unreal.
