To watch something in person? investigates the agency of the audience in the face of choices made by the artist. Playing on themes of enclosure, participation, and choice-making, the artist will ask the audience to decide the outcome of the performance.

This performance builds on a number of Vea’s recent works with physical endurance, labour, audience engagement, Tongan genealogies with building and the politics of class and cultural identification in relation to Pacific peoples in Aotearoa.
