My Valiant Orphan (2007) by Marissa Nielsen-Pincus in collaboration with Donna Ahmadi is a duet that treads the gap between sweetness and indulgence. A pair of wanderers fragment their way through a dance: smile, hesitate, demonstrate, and obsess until they fall down. Presented by Chashama as part of Oasis 2007, My Valiant Orphan will be performed in Chashama's store front window with original music composed by Mark DeNardo.

TREE (2007) by J Day, Zach Morris and Tom Pearson is a sculpture for the 2007 Burning Man Art Festival in Nevada. It is created from metal scrollwork and wrought iron ornamental appliqué, designed to evoke a two-dimensional Victorian formalism.
