Self-Brainwashing is an immersive performance art piece by Bulgarian artist Michail Michailov, held at the Minnesota Street Project. The space, dimly lit and filled with unsettling imagery, sets the stage for a chaotic exploration of identity and self-perception. Participants donned white protective suits, reminiscent of dystopian themes, as they engaged in unpredictable interactions under the guidance of Michailov. The experience provoked a blend of fascination and unease among observers, ultimately challenging them to reconsider their roles in the spectacle and their engagement with conceptual art.
This performance invited introspection and a reconsideration of our relationship with art - are we observers or participants in this chaotic spectacle of self-exploration?
The ominous atmosphere, created by the contrasting lighting and strange formations of participants in protective suits, evoked a sense of both intrigue and discomfort, challenging perceptions of performance art.
