remainders / The "remainders" are graphite rubbings made of the paintings. Every time the surface of the paintings changes significantly, a graphite impression is made to transcribe the surface. The set of remainders made for each painting stays together as one piece and are shown chronologically, left to right. A separate final remainder is made to register the final state. As sedimentary events, they materialize forms within the paintings that have become invisible, partial, or erased. These works map the transitive passages of the paintings, becoming their indexes, traces, remainders. The full set, when installed together, becomes a lateral field of unfolding time and change, proposing a poetic, termporal narrative. Every painting made since 2010 has a set of remainders, which stays with the painting. Currently the sets range between 7 - 23, depending on the painting. The painting and set of remainders can be displayed separately.
