This was an early performance participation as docent for  The Couple in the Cage, here at the Field Museum in Chicago in 1993.  The Couple in the Cage, a project by Guillermo Gomez-Peña and Coco Fusco, presented museum audiences with two human beings inside the cage with museum docents and didactic materials explaining that these were two recently discovered amerindians from an island in the Caribbean.
