A performance with a large puppet, illustrating Page's experience with chronic pain.

“Page accompanied with their larger than life hand-made puppet move slowly and indecisively throughout this eight-and-a-half minute video. Page, standing in sight behind the figure moves the head and appendages of the puppet while an eerie score of nonsensical buzzing synth sounds play in the background. Page wanted to exemplify the subtle irritation and aggravation that comes with constant pain that varies in intensity for no apparent reason. The puppet itself appears to be in a great deal of pain, but does not speak or react boldly.”
