Allo Performance!

From May 2001 to February 2002, transsexual activist Mirha-Soleil Ross appeared pregnant every time she was in public as part of her 9 month long performance art cycle "The Pregnancy Project". The project explored transsexual women's relationship to the personal and institutional aspects of motherhood and hoped to foster community discussion around controversial reproductive technologies. This video feature Ross performing pregnancy by the Golden Gate bridge in San Francisco and an audio recording of her mother speaking about the ups and downs of having a baby.
