Over the last 14 years, the team has collaborated on a variety of pieces – durational, site specific, web sites and audience participatory.  This is the fourth piece that has focused specifically on fertility.  Two pieces, August 18th, 2000 Cycle Begins in the Evening and Untitled (calendar) are video performances. Bye Bye Baby is a photographic documentation of baby detritus found on the street. They have also produced solo works about infertility.
