About the Item
Experimental work done live on a thick red paper with industrial marker and tempera. Inspired by the eponymous song by Mark Almond:
"Lonely go-go dancer
Dancing in crazy foam
Surrounded by your acolytes
But going home alone
When did you last see
A sun-drenched afternoon
When did the morning light
Last invade your room?"

Music in my head. Dancing
Located in Zofingen, AG
During the exhibition in Spain artist was asked:
-- How did she pose for you, did she danced all the way?
