A desk, symbolizing the space I occupy — or that I am expected to fill during the time in residency — becomes the actual medium. On its surface, images sourced daily from Al Jazeera’s fact-based News are painted using phosphorescent pigments. These images disappear and reappear, only to fade once more, creating a cycle of presence and absence.
What should I bring to the table, today?
