“TEARDROP COMPETITION”

BBQ takes the A train line to the last stop 168th street while they cry in public.

CRY!! invites the public to release with BBQ through tears, no explanation necessary. CRY!! promotes a silent, free group format, emotional bonding space in otherwise unorthodox places — inviting all who want to purge, de-stress, let go or simply cry in the safe embrace of communal proximity. The silent parameter provides a safe, non judgmental space for all who seek to tap into emotions they seek to let go thereby bonding through the power of empathy. Hugging and physical embrace allowed. Let’s cry together.

BBQ activates New York in a series of site specific performances. See full video on BBQ’s YouTube Channel.

Location: A Train Line (8 Avenue Express)
