RED GRAVY AND SWEET TEA

2024

Painting: Acrylic and oil paint, colored pencil

Table: found table legs, found butcher block, found wood,

acrylic and spray paint, Glitter,

Food: My grandmother’s red gravy recipe and a vegan

option, Bunny bread from New Orleans. Extremely sweet

cold tea just like my mother makes

Performance: A line of people gather listening to New Orleans music as they wait to receive the body and

blood of Julia Bommarito and Mckenna Bommarito. While in line the participants read instructions on

what hand gestures to use. One gesture indicates Vegan or Non Vegan and another for the tea or no tea.

Bayside the meal and a painting Mckenna Bommarito serves them their meal based on their gestures.

They then sit together listening to music and eating their meal.
