Walking 30km with red high heel shoes between 2 art spaces

This film is currently not available.   
A 9-hour performance by Moroccan-French artist Mehdi-Georges Lahlou, in which he walked approximately 30 kilometers in red high-heeled shoes from Galerie Transit in Mechelen to Lokaal 01 in Antwerp, Belgium. Using endurance, gender-coded clothing, bodily discomfort, and the movement between two art spaces, the work explores gender identity, sexuality, bodily limitation, and the social expectations attached to appearance and movement. The resulting video is documentation of the performance.
