We haunt the spaces we are in and the spaces we leave (2025). Tactile installation, lamps, wall, a series of serigraphy prints
Enter the tactile interpretation of invisible human behavior patterns in the 325 studio. Face the blinding light. Cover your eyes. Understand space with other senses. Feel the dots spread out on the ground, their pattern, template, model. With your feet, touch the mark left. Think about or remember other marks left in space. Ask a question about the conditional nature of data interpretation. Answer it. Get lost in the infinite amount of information.
When I close my eyes, I see fragments of space. The light that seeps through my eyelids intertwines with the seen, the imagined, the reconstructed. Flashes of color remind me of an invisible choice. The choice to stay, the choice to leave. The choice to leave a mark.
Can an invisible image have color? I try to imagine black, I try to imagine white. I imagine darkness and light. And the sun was shining very, very brightly. And I closed my eyes. And I saw exactly the same orange as your favorite marker. I don’t know if that’s why you use it.*
I draw orange lines. I mark points. 1520 — 1266 — 729 — 620. The point leaves a mark on the transfer paper intended for lines. The phantom spot moves the person, who records their being with colored markers, from one model to another. Orange lines — perhaps a somewhat superficial method of analysis. But in some dimension, a line is a curve.
