Over the years I have documented the works of other artists, mostly performances but also paintings, garments, sculptures and installations. It feels cold to call them commissions since these assignments came from fellow artists, oftentimes friends, kindly asking me to lend my eye to their work. The documentation process was more of a conversation and a collaboration, their hands, body and voice together with my eye. 

If you are interested to collaborate or have a portrait, maybe some documentation for a work or performance just send me an email at das.james1995@gmail.com 🙂
