Duo (Gone)

Duo (Gone). 2001.
collage, ink, pastel, gesso, and pencil on paper.
4 x 2-3/4 inches.

This is a collage that I started in the spring of 2001. Although it lacked a distinct focal point I thought it might be finished - the collaged elements seemed to carry enough visual weight to create a convincing space, and the map fragment and center horizon line implied a sense of geography and strata. I filed it away in a drawer and went on to work on other projects.

I added two smudged pencil marks.
It was enough.
