The art team Dan and Cheryl™ have been working together since 2004. They have done collaborative works under Stretcher’s exhibitions in Bay Area Now 4 at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts and in The Way We Work at Southern Exposure. The following videos are excerpts from the 3 events they did for these exhibitions.

Dan Spencer is a visual artist based in San Francisco, whose work includes painting, performance, and collaborations.
Cheryl Meeker is a visual artist and writer based in San Francisco who uses various visual means to explore sustenance in a market dominated economy.
