Light Capture (Attempts #2, #3), 2012 - 2014
Clear tape on used packing paper and on packing paper roll
50 x 300 cm, 42 x 56 cm (19.7 x 118 inches, 16.5 x 22 inches)
The works involved identifying and tracing over any highlights I could see on each piece of paper, as it was placed on the desk. Pieces of clear tape were cut, by hand, to match these highlighted areas. These pieces were then placed over the corresponding areas on the paper. The pieces of tape reveal themselves when they shine in light. The use of clear tape along with packing paper relates to the common use of these materials as well as to the slightly shiny surface of the paper.
