Neil Farber | Carol Es is a collection of art by two artists who have never met but whose work shares creative DNA. Given a fairly broad parameter (10" x 7" ink and watercolor drawings on a white background), the artists each produced a body of work that is presented here with no commentary. Take in each page on its own, or squint at the whole and try to find a plot as Farber's intricate annotated drawings grow progressively more saturated while Es's lush watercolor backgrounds recede into interacting lines and shapes.

Each copy includes an archival print of a collaborative drawing signed by both artists.
