24 Hour Embrace is a performance that involved the artist and a stranger found through the Craigslist online listing service. From Dec 30th, 2008 at the stroke of midnight through the traditional New Year's Eve countdown (Jan 1st, 2009), they sustained a 24 hour embrace with no break.
Visitors to the storefront gallery were welcome to join in the embrace after the 12th hour. The work was also video recorded onto 24 individual mini DV tapes.
