Project Decision

I have decided I want to do the ninja fighting proposal. My boyfriend will train me in the spiritual teachings of martial arts and the physical aspects. This journey in learning a new skill will be part of the process and my learning will be documented as part of the project. The fight will last roughly 15 to 20 minutes and possible go in rounds to last longer. We will sit and meditate as well as fight in traditional ways. we will be in ninja costumes that will have things written on them to incorporate meaning and a struggle of opposing forces in the world today. In the end no one will win because neither good nor evil prevails totally and I am contemplating a way to turn us both grey afterwards. This is sort of the inspiration of my art.
I have already filled out my release form and am prepared to turn it on on monday
