Corner Splat 1993 From Wall Works Painting in acrylic on mylar, mounted on a wall. Different configurations and sizes, each unique; installation size according to the wall. Limited to 20 paintings, with a signed and numbered certificate.
The Corner Splat paintings ironically imitate Formica, an artificial, stale product of the industrial sector whose name has become part of American mass-culture vernacular. Suggesting material as well as perspective in a "fake" way, the Corner Splats stand in the tradition of trompe-loeil paintings. Hybrids of painting, sculpture and furniture, they confuse our concept of the objects surrounding us and carve out real and imaginary spaces which are exceptions to the hegemonic rationality of everyday life in the West.
Corner Splat II 2009 Laminate on aluminum, to be mounted on the wall, in or at a corner. Different configurations and sizes, each unique. Edition of 20, signed and numbered.
