Sheet of pure acrylic paint over wooden stretcher,
57 x 40.5 cm
In my work, which encompasses many different media including photography, installation
and performance, I have always been fascinated by the idea of the surface; its
elusiveness, its intangibility and its dominating role in our society.
With this piece I wanted to separate the paint from its canvas support: layers of acrylic
paint were built up on glass, peeled off and then stretched and folded over a traditional
wooden stretcher so that it is the surface itself which is used to make an image.
