Painted Lady Performance Project

The Painted Lady Performance Project made a spectacular appearance at the Press Play party on Saturday night. The ladies stunned the crowd with silky, and dramatic costumes set off by skin painted luminescent bronze. Their deliberately slow, regal movements and elegant, statuesque poses struck awe all around. For several hours, they never left character, even when leading the way to the after-party across busy 14th Street at Viridian. Four volunteers hoisted a blanket above their heads to protect them from the rain as cabs swerved to miss the slow-moving procession.
