KELLY P. KIEVIT - Her piece was performed on the Nelson Fine Arts Center plaza atop a nine-foot-high welded steel tower, reminiscent of an airplane or high voltage tower. Clad in a red and white suit, Kievit used props to become first a boxer, then a night watchman and finally a prisoner. The conceptional basis for the three characters stemmed from Kievit's ways of dealing with emotional situations: aggressively (the boxer), efficiently and distant (the watchman) and impotently (the prisoner).
