These acts of Hollowing and filling investigate the plane or surface as something to be constructed, and not as a ‘given’ of the painting proper. The focus is on the concrete (as opposed to pictorial) tableau: the ground occupying painterly space, instead of it simply supporting pictorial illusion. The work also conflates physical manipulation with cognitive articulation, wherein thinking is understood as a set of material acts and doings. The support becomes a ground for material action and thought.
