Not the exactitude and the success with which a notation notates a sound; but the musicalness of the notation in its notating.” (Cornelius Cardew)</em></p>https://emptyname.org/rust-and-renewal/Wed, 29 Nov 2023 19:40:36 +0000https://emptyname.org/rust-and-renewal/<p>This series of paintings uses fragments of broken umbrellas and iron filings mixed into the paint.

Here, the time is employed as an additional material, necessary for the artwork’s unfolding.</p>
