Abstract

This paper presents a performance art piece, Building Strength, as a case study for a relational model in performance art. This model was proposed some years ago within my artistic practice and also to connect with other artists’ practices. In this paper, the model, instead of being used to create a performance art piece, is proposed as a research tool to connect with my Building Strength as a researcher.
