Jessica Earley is a fairly recent Orlando transplant. I first saw her work during a Puppet Slam at the Orlando Puppet Festival.
Jessica then went on to perform several pieces with a Mr. Brian Feldman, of wide renown in Orlando for his outdoor, public, time-based performance art. I also saw Jessica’s piece titled “I want your sympathy” at the Orlando Museum of Art’s First Thursdays, and I participated in her outdoor gallery event , “Blunder Bungle”, held at the aptly named “Museum of my Neighbor’s Backyard”.
Jessica also caught my attention when she signed up for twitter for exactly one day. Then, the 10,000th day she was alive, she paraded from her home to local hangout Stardust Video & Coffee in a parade of one, which was 10,000 steps long.
This video seems to be starring Jessica, though I don’t know who shot and edited the piece. The YouTube page for the piece says it’s a music video for a Chicago-based artist named Maigin Blank.
