In Moki Cherry’s artistic practice, there are no sharp boundaries between design, art, drama and music. In 1962, Moki Cherry moved to Stockholm to study at the Beckmans College of Design. A few years later, she met the American jazz musician Don Cherry, and they embarked on a close collaboration. Separately and together, they created happenings, music, art, posters and album covers. Their motto was “the stage as a home, and the home as a stage”1.
