Artist Erica Felicella spent one of the last days of 2020 lying on her back in a square pile of rocks. She was motionless for 10 hours, from 7:10 a.m. to sundown at 5:30 p.m. The artist commanded a lot in the Cedars neighborhood for the performance, titled, “Resistance, Re-Live and Proceed.” The interactive event drew dozens of visitors over the course of an overcast but mild winter day.
Resistance, Re-live and Proceed Many events have been canceled or postponed due to coronavirus concerns. Please check with the organization before going to any event.

Resistance, Re-Live and Proceed is a new endurance and durational performance by Erica Felicella. This new work is part of a collective gathering of thoughts, ideas and concepts to meet a performance challenge. The goal is to not let 2020 go past without a solo work and in doing so a challenge was put out to make one happen before the end of the year. This is an interactive work so it involves direct engagement from each visitor. The work lasts from exactly sunrise to sunset on December 29. A special entrance ceremony is to take place before entering and then again after exit. What happens in between is up to each visitor. Everyone will take a solo journey through the piece.
