At the opening of 'Fresh Cut' 2010 at Brisbane's Institute of Modern Art, Kate Woodcroft and Catherine Sagin, of the collaborative artist-duo Fiona Mail, engaged in a ten-minute fencing bout. Sagin prevailed, coming from behind to win 10-8. Her prize: naming rights. For the next twelve months the duo's ongoing collaborative work will be presented not under Fiona Mail's name, but Sagin's.
