Zhane Warren invited me to collaborate with her at her print studio, Warren Editions on a printmaking performance Treading Soft Ground . Using the etching technique of soft ground drawing as the medium I will be doing an ambidextrous drawing performance next year as part of the World Design Capital Cape Town program.

Here Zhane and I are doing some mark making test plates as I refresh my hands at soft ground.
