Dynasty Handbag: The Bored Identity
In the spirit of classic comedy albums by artists such as Lily Tomlin and Richard Pryor, The Bored Identity is a collection of characters and songs by the underground’s most beloved subversive comedic performance artist. Dynasty Handbag takes on the self care industrial complex, murderous misogyny and the horrors of heteronormativity by deftly moving in and out of a crackpot slew of characters in ridiculously imaginative scenarios.
Jibz Cameron is a performance and video artist living in Los Angeles, performing multimedia work as alter ego DynastyHandbag. Over the last 15 years, Cameron has combined tragedy and comedy, at such institutions as MOCA, PS1, Joe’s Pub, The Kitchen, REDCAT, The Broad Museum, The Hammer Museum, and the New Museum, among others. The New York Times has heralded her as “the funniest and most pitch perfect performance seen in years.”
