Slippage, 2014floorcloth installation, size variable, digitally collaged direct scans, drawing/painting, canvas, image transfer, acrylic paint, marker, chalk

swipe/drag image

In this site-specific floorcloth installation, traditional space of the gallery is subverted by work that is meant to be walked on and touched. The floorcloths are created by digitally manipulating photographs and extreme scans, transferring and superimposing the images onto canvas between layers of varnish, paint, chalk and marker. As if spilling out from burst seams, motifs of smoke, shadow, patterned tile, flora and delicate compositions of street debris not only cover the ground but appear to slip up along the walls, enveloping the viewer and dictating a new way of looking.
