During my residency at Duplex in Lisbon, I questioned the utility of the desk I was given to work on. 
On its surface, images sourced daily from Al Jazeera’s fact-based News are painted using  phosphorescent powders .

These images disappear and reappear, only to fade once more, creating a cycle of presence and absence.
