Pinhole Drawings ( 60 )
2005

• A4: Administrative formal structures of commerce / business & the intimacy of correspondence.

• Discipline & repetition is used to pit gesture against calculated modes of production. Authorship thrown into question by the irony of procedure.
  
• Repetition alluding to memory, intuition & the fragility of originality.
  
• Concerns with gender / class / taste; the conflation of the hierarchy of domestic decoration & fine art.
  
• Touch: the libidinal, transgressive pleasure of exquisitely puncturing the visceral surface.
  
• Repetition not primarily to induce meditation on temporality, nor Zen contemplation, yet pursuing to its extreme a form of liberation.
  
• Praxis: an attempt to un-pick / deconstruct the surface qualities, in order to explore the poetics of life beyond the facade.
