Marcus Orlandi, 'Don't Fight'. Marcus Orlandi steals from high brow and low brow cultures, confronting each with eachother. Flitting with the ease of a channel change between 1960’s conceptual performance art and WWE professional wrestling, Marcus sets new stakes for what is believed and what is true.

This work is reminiscent of the artist's own walks in the area, finding piece following tensions appearing in his own life.
