Beneath Wall Art and other marks left by

and other marks left by the people who used these books before

especially the different shades of faded blue and teal

I wanted it to feel compact and substantial

I was especially excited when I found the fabric with the three faces

Beneath Wall Art and other marks left byBeneath came together from many Japanese boro fragments, including a long noragi jacket from the 1800s that I deconstructed. I peeled back layers on several of the pieces to see what was underneath. I was especially excited when I found the fabric with the three faces. I had never come across a print like that before. It was a nice surprise. Beneath was made in 2024 and measures 43" wide x 44" high x 2" deep. It's stretched on premium Museo ALU frame
