Factoid #2 was exhibited in the Gloria Halle in Düsseldorf. This second version was created on two clear sheets of plastic measuring 3 x 5 meters each, one of which was covered with an architectural-perspectival tape-constructed drawing similar to Factoid #1, while the other had a giant spider web pattern on it, also “drawn” with tape. These two sheets of plastic were placed over an interior wall, the web hanging loosely over the architectural drawing, creating a flexible area between them within which we could perform. Some of the architectural lines continued onto the floor, as if they had spilled off of the plastic. The myriad web of associations resulting from this juxtaposition were entirely intentional. Wearing white, hooded, one-piece, disposable work suits, Carina was labeled as “spider” and Michael as “fly.” Michael wore his suit backwards so that the hood, adorned with sun glasses, covered his face as he talk-sang “Human Fly” by the Cramps, as Carina, wearing a large fur hat (the same one she wore while drilling into Factoid #1), covered him with some of the same black tape the drawings were made of. The lyrics became increasingly disjointed and repetitive as the spider covered her victim with tape, until she finally lead him through the audience and out of the halle.

Factoid #2 was sponsored by Tesa corporation
