Thanks D for the 'Drawn Together' reference.
Artists Birgitta Hosea and Maryclare Foá are exploring the physicality of drawing in real time it seems, "communicating how the body traces and experiences duration".
Their performance drawing is interesting, two people bound together by a latex tether, the stretch and pull, the movement of one person influencing and suggesting the movement of the other person.
So they traced the movements of drawing on ancient, decorative tiles in this palace without leaving a visible mark. Like a performance of drawing. Seems to me very much like a dance.
Their blog mentions the following sources...
"It references Fluxus, and engages with theories and concepts by Deleuze and Merleau-Ponty to develop the notion of becoming and the experience of the body in space and time."
Need to check out Fluxus - David pointed us to them also.
