    This really sounds interesting… I always thought about the aesthetic possibilities in making the 2D calligraphy into 3D spaces… Do you have any video documentation of this?

    hi super devoika

    i am lucky to have even a few b&w photographs of the 1993 performance forum / work in progress CURVES, LINES, DOTS AND ACCENTS OR WRITING WITH THE HIP

    this work was further developed and produced in 1996 at a successful season at Belvoir Theatre, and there is a basic, single frame video documentation on VHS of the final work … more on that production very soon …

    VHS can become digitize… I think it would be interesting for the long run to have some videos in your website…
    Photos are great though… and really nice quality B&W… =)
