In Elegy of the minimal, almost imperceptible silver lines are drawn onto photographs, creating a second image.

The capillary traces enter into a quiet dialogue with the photos underneath, which depict entangled ramifications and ovoid silken volumes.

Light reveals and conceals the drawing as the viewer shifts position, and the work continuously oscillates between appearance and disappearance.

The underlying photos are real but it’s not clear whether what we see occurs naturally. 

The subjects can be perceived at the same time as attractive and repulsive, yet in the photos the unsettling aspects appear transfigured into an ambiguous beauty.

They seem to evoke a suspended time beyond the sensible world, one that cannot be easily named.

The work unfolds through subtlety, suggesting that the exiguous, the minute, the seemingly insignificant, may also possess the greatest intensity of presence.
