Description
Notes: 
"A BLE W AIL" is stenciled in black paint horizontally on a piece of burlap. "A BLE W AIL" was a performance by Cha at Worth Ryder Gallery, Berkeley, CA. 1975.
Notes: 
It is unclear whether Cha incorporated the burlap into her performance. Viewing the photographs there is no evidence that the burlap was used. The burlap is possibly part of a larger work or is a work itself.
