Candyland is one of a series of studio performances from the project "Cannibal Garden" that examines the constructed identity as it mutates through digital space. Using artifice as costume, mining sci-fi, anime and horror films for psychological interactions, Handelman slowly crawls across the floor – the artist as obsessive devouring action machine – consuming pure color in in an act of auto-eroticism.
