Installation and performance at The Right to Protest at Pro Radix, 10 Greatorex Street, Whitechapel London. September 2025. 

Between 2019 and 2022 drag queen extraordinare #Sergina and her Agents collected data online & offline about her audience’s wellbeing through a repetitive Soap Opera slash series of Data Collection Incidents called ‘How Are you? #Sergina’s Participatory Soap Opera about Wrestling with Wellbeing in the Digital Age.’  In 2022 this data was handled in collaboration with artist/data analyst Kit Kuksenok, and turned into something any person can invest in, from the price of £0.25 (plus a £10 administration charge plus an extra £10 for the Real Gold Frame.) The Data is Dirty. It has not been cleaned. Audiences had the chance to dirty it further by adding ther data to the mix.

On 23rd September 2025 one of #Sergina’s agents delivered a live demonstration of this Desperately Delicious Dirty Data.
