You also don’t often find Ben Wolf and Heidi Tullman pirouetting and dancing with their shadows under blasting klieg lights, casting long shadows and painting a pointy Elizabethan finger.

An apparition of the early settlers, the duo enact a painting play to be captured by curious cell phones on the way to clever cocktails.
In the morning sunlight, the brightly primitive pointer could be a rude gesture, slightly indicting, or merely a helpful directional signal for the wandering mistaken artist in search of Bohemia – pointing east to yonder Bushwick, Bed Stuy, and Ridgewood.
