Charlie Levin during a performance of Wax & Wayne, 2002

Painted live onstage in the context of Local Infinities Visual Theater’s performance “Wax & Wayne.” When the show begins, the artist is behind a clear window. The image is created in front of the audience, yet when it is turned around at the end, and lit from the front, a completely different image is revealed.
