'THE CREEPER' WAS A PERFORMANCE MADE AT THE WHITECHAPEL GALLERY, LONDON, LATE 2009, AS PART OF AN RVCC (www.redvelvetcurtainclub.com) EVENT, TITLED 'VOYEUR', HELD IN SUPPORT OF AN EXHIBITION BY SOPHIE CALLE.
WEARING A CREEPY LATEX SKELETON MASK (CRUDELY DAUBED WITH MAKE-UP) AND MECHANICS OVERALLS, I CONVEYED MYSELF AROUND THE GALLERY FLOOR ON A GARAGE CREEPER - A TROLLEY WITH WHEELS NORMALLY USED TO SLIDE UNDERNEATH CARS. FROM THIS VANTAGE POINT, AND WITH A TORCH HELD IN MY MOUTH, I HAD A PRIVILEGED VIEW OF THE AUDIENCE, PARTICULARLY THOSE WEARING SKIRTS.
