In this series of performance works, Oppenheim investigates transference and communication through the body. In the Transfer Drawing pieces, Oppenheim makes a drawing on his son's back; his son tries to copy this drawing through tactile sensation onto the wall. They then reverse roles. Writes Oppenheim, "I am drawing through him."
