The Treatise series concerns itself with cultural amnesia and the loss of origin, the loss of cultural memory and the obliteration that ensues It. Silhouettes In these works, far from representing absence, represent presence or rather the dichotomy and the overlapping of presence and absence. I am interested in the resulting friction. The friction leading to a high speed activation and concentration of energy within the silhouette and becoming a residue of the metamorphosis of the psyche.
They are the remnants of experience, the debris left behind, the after-image, the image reverberating on the back of the burnt cornea.
