In my endurance piece, I was strung up to a wooden cross piece as a marionette with loose ropes so people interested could loosen or tighten any one of my joints. It was based on a fear of social control, both physically and mentally. Not a whole lot of people came by, or stopped to see what I was doing, but a few took the challenge. Mostly, I just got a lot of very awkward stares and giggles. IT was very cold and the rope began hurting my limbs early on, but it wasn't unbearable. It was interesting to see people's reactions. Some people knew it was foundations, other people came up to me and said they thought it was great that I was making an illustration against individual control.
