Project Statement

by J. Drucker

The overall project here is an ongoing study of various processes, natural, cultural, and phenomenological, through the use of graphical means (drawings of events, particles, fragments, and the aesthetics of decay, etc.). This has been a concern since the 1970s. The editioned work is a catalogue to accompany an exhibition and contains representative images from all of these various series created over more than three decades.
