A String of Lies is Weis’ first solo show in New York City. This work plants the seed for many of the themes and technological set-ups that she would develop over the years and lays the groundwork for her style: vignettes featuring partnerships between technology and the human body in performance.


Performer: Jennifer Miller


Animation: Liaizon Wakest
