Christopher Ender Coryat: Face to Face Toilets (Revisited)

Face to Face Toilets (Revisited) is a public performance and sculptural installation exploring intimacy, vulnerability, and absurdity in shared space. Two toilets are positioned uncomfortably close, facing each other, transforming a familiar site of solitude into a charged space of confrontation and communion. First conceived in 2017, the piece now returns with added context around disability, autonomy, and public exposure. The work invites passersby to question social norms around privacy, control, and the body. is a public performance and sculptural installation exploring intimacy, vulnerability, and absurdity in shared space.

Christopher Ender Coryat is a multidisciplinary artist and curator based in New York whose work confronts systems of control through deeply personal, material-based investigations. Drawing on his lived experience with epilepsy and disability, Ender creates sculptural installations, performances, and paintings that center the body as a site of vulnerability, resistance, and transformation. His practice often incorporates unconventional materials, such as pharmaceutical pigments: to explore solitude, autonomy, and the blurred boundaries between public and private space. With a focus on accessibility and intimacy, Ender crafts environments that invite reflection while disrupting conventional viewer expectations. His recent projects interrogate the social architecture of bathrooms, hospitals, and other liminal zones where survival and embodiment collide.
