Mallory and Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race author Reni Eddo-Lodge.
Cherophobiatakes its title from a psychiatric condition basically known as an extreme fear of happiness. Lakmaier's own experience with disability inspired the work, which plays with ideas of detachment on a rather colossal, jaw-dropping scale. As main stage as meditation gets, the work explores ideas of restraint, patience, and anticipation.
Cherophobiasaw a somewhat lengthier performance in St Leonards Church in Shoreditch, London in 2016, where the artist rose for a casual 48 hours.
