“Paint for Me!” is a communicative performance + workshop by Residency Unlimitedartist Tomoko Hisamatsu that investigates strategies for the distribution of artwork without the transactional use of money. For this event, the artist will display her drawings and art materials and invite the public to interact with these items. At the same time the public will be encouraged to make their own art works, resulting in a bartering process between both parties. There are rules however to follow, such as no signature and no title allowed on the artworks, to highlight how value and equality are at play and can possibly be re-negotiated.

Several iterations of “Paint for Me!” have been held by the artist in the City both indoors and outdoors, including NADA Flea and in the Chelsea district during New York Art Week in 2023.

Everyone is invited to join!
