Eilers’ performances function as social factories for the production and dismemberment of artworks and subjectivities. Objects that begin life in the studio might be reprocessed within a situation. Props made for a performance might find their way back to the studio, where they are retooled for the gallery. Along the way, Eilers involves others in the process, either as collaborators, assistants, or audience participants. Artistic subjectivity is at times surrendered, though the communal feeling his work generates and embodies is never entirely free from a shaping aesthetic that is resolutely policed.
