Concept
In the performance "Hullabelly" the artist, veiled by a headscarf, in trousers and skirt, moves with a hula-hoop to Oriental belly dance music. She uses only her head to rotate the hoop. Each cycle lasts for 3min24secs and is repeated as a loop for up to 3 hours, with a 1minute pause between cycles.
