Bringing back recurring characters from her practice, Olivia Mole is changing the installation of her show, “Dopesheet Batman,” each week in this intimate East Hollywood space, keeping only the wall pieces and purple carpeted platform intact. In her first iteration of the project, her characters, which include a bear and a skull-masked figure in a blue spandex suit, are piled on top of each other, stuffed limbs hanging to the sides, the viewer unsure of whether there are three or four figures and which limbs are attached to what. Situated on an automated platform, the assemblage rotates for a brief period every six minutes and includes a folding chair at its peak. Based on an exposure sheet drawn by Looney Tunes animator Spike Brandt, in which Daffy Duck exclaims he is Batman, the project addresses identity and costume, and will continue to unfold with the remaining incarnations.
