The Grace of Wreckage
Note on Series:
The series is a set of visual erasures/ redactions based on the voyages of Sinbad, which has been mixed with lines from Mallarmé’s Un Coup de Dés (mainly in its English translation). This interference reworks the archetypal narrative of voyage and return, so invoke modern and contemporary images of shipwreck and loss. – Brian Baker
