The work originates in scans of photographs of modernist artworks found in art books in the studio, including works by artists such as Hans Arp and Alberto Giacometti. This is the source of the series’ title, Black Dots.
In the working process, the original photograph is broken down into fragments, which are then used to construct a new image. The tonal transitions and halftone pattern of the original printed reproduction become the raw materials from which the collage is assembled. Through processes of fragmentation, cutting, and reconfiguration, the image moves away from its source and acquires a new meaning and presence.
