Thks for posting this.

[@elainemcginnartist]

interesting how performance art attracted the attention of passers by (back then) now, nobody would care what was going on and walk past without a second look.

@@elainemcginnartist wow you don’t have to be so arrogant about it

[@Liloskat]

Sure, Its a segment from the film, Other Than Art's Sake by the Australian artist Peter Kennedy, this is a documentation and interview by Peter on Piper’s Mythic Being street performances. It shows her getting into drag ( dressed as a male) and through the lense of the camera capturing the curiosity of the crowd due to the cameras and/or simply the curiosity at the time towards gender, genderfluidity.
