On January 25, 1984, at Long Beach State Art Gallery, Lisa called this performance Graphite Woman, as she was coated in this substance, and she recreated her world championship routine for a small audience of art lovers. Accompanied by the Shakuhachi flute, behind a low wall of gold bricks, Lisa again demonstrates her ideas of the body as art. This is something she promoted in her work as she saw herself as an artist whose canvas was her whole body.
