About
Six paintings divided into two: Any Resemblance Is Purely Coincidental, and Scream With a View.
As it emanated, echoed and was tied to the Exquisite Corpse boxes’ series—in what I thought of, like the boxes, as works of calamities—concrete, flat spaces were fabricated, constructed; spaces upon spaces were opened, tangible planes, transparent partitions, and spaces became one: independent and interdependent spaces invested in creating separated stories. The drawings on the semi-transparent paper evinced an “extreme case” of a spaceless drawing that enters and accepts upon itself the space in which it was placed. On the verge of collapse, falling apart, what if my works were to orient themselves towards non-existence, if in the moment of the art doer-work-viewer triangle, the painting cancels itself, deprives itself, negates itself, collapses itself, and only the viewer remains? Could a space be negated to zero? Will then a perspective be hyper disastrous? What if then, I thought, my paintings were paintings of—I, the painting, cancel myself, I am missing, and therefore only you remain. I am coming to you, I am approaching you, I am falling towards you, and therefore you are almost inside me.
