In her performance, Death is Certain, Eva Meyer-Keller uses sweet cherries as her protagonists. The stalks are removed from the fruit, but they are not washed or stoned. Instead, they are brutally attacked. Meyer-Keller takes care of this business herself, in a manner that turns the everyday into something brutal. The audience is reminded of both fictional celluloid deaths and the reality of the executioner.

Published to accompany Sharjah Biennial 9, Provisions is an experimental catalogue approaching the space of the book as an art project.
The second book in the Provisions series looks at the experience of taking part in and attending a biennial.
Eva Meyer-Keller is a versatile performance artist whose work often emerges from a point of transition between visual and performing arts.
