Drawing with body and viewers – Pulleys and Ropes are attached to the architectural framework of the building interior, each performer has on a pair of roller skates, with a body harness attached. The viewer is asked to “guide” the drawing of graphite, charcoal and roller skates on the 50’ x 20’ paper. The action becomes abstracted as equally hilarious, the unobstructed as the viewer guides the process of the drawing by pulling on ropes to guide the image over the duration of 8 hours.
