We drew/scratched/poured/spilled on the same page at the same time with ink, graphite, tempera or Flashe, and sometimes pastel. What began with controlled accident was then studied and worked with (sometimes, during years 2 and 3, collaging our own drawings together) until it felt finished and “right” to us. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52bf791de4b08923fcafc60a/1388281185963-ZEMUXKPZLMOJP0NTNVNH/onthebeach_nyc_1165.jpg Collaborations - Degenerate Art Ensemble Costumes These costumes were created for Haruko Nishimura and Dohee Lee to wear as part of Degenerate Art Ensemble's (DAE) performance of an excerpt of Philip Glass's Opera Einstein on the Beach, commissioned by Robert Wilson and performed at the Baryshnikov Center in New York in April of 2012.
