Series of drawings painted with phosphorescent pigments on the residency desk.
Portable UV-flashlights
60 x 80 x 120 cm
Approximately 1,5 x 2,5 cm each painting
During the residency, I questioned the utility of the desk I was given to work on.
On its surface, images sourced daily from Al Jazeera News are painted using phosphorescent powders in water dispersion.
These images disappear and reappear, only to fade once more, in a cycle of presence and absence.
