The Perfect, Singular Moment, When Reality Looks Back at You to Show, Exactly, What She Has Been Hiding All This Time: Nothing

Abstract

This research process is rooted in a material practice and in the temporal apprehension of objects and everyday materials, extending and complexifying the concept of the readymade (as first introduced by Marcel Duchamp). The focus on materiality separates this research from more traditional time-based art practices such as video, sound, or performance, as I seek to investigate the temporal properties of a sculptural experience. The complexities involved in the object-subject relation are at the core of my research.
