Legacy
A 30-minute video endurance performance Legacy, presents artist Carlos Motta, looking directly at the camera and wearing a dental gag, as he tries to repeat, from memory, a timeline of HIV/AIDS, from to 1908 until 2019, spoken at him by American radio journalist Ari Shapiro. Unable to speak clearly, grappling with remembering the lines, and in pain, the artist gradually and visibly exhausts himself with the burdens of this history.
