On Friday March 4, 2016 Dana Claxton performed Follow the Red Sinew at the Belkin Art Gallery. At the end of the performance, she gave me a piece of red cloth, which I tucked into a red folder and filed on a shelf devoted to Vancouver art and artists.
After Dana and Skeena Reece's on-stage conversation at last Sunday's Vancouver Art Book Fair, Dana asked if I still had the cloth, and could she borrow it for her VAG show. "But it opens on Friday," I said somewhat incredulously. "Yes, I know," said Dana smiling, "so I'll need it soon."
Because I was out most of yesterday I had told Pauline, Dana's assistant, that I would leave the cloth on my porch. Not on the chair, as it says in the picture, but under its cushion, which I did.
