A Promise of Breaking series is on which we see the actual carbon transfer of the block's breakage. These "impact prints" record the moment of dissolution and map the topography of destruction. Still, this premise is tentative, as the title suggests. What has exactly been broken? Where do these maps take us? What do they pledge? There is nothing we can recognize as the grain as such here. These works show sharp lines and smudges. angular shapes, specks of pigment, the contours of the block only faintly coming through like a shadow. A Promise of Breaking has a haunting sensibility to it, propelled by the absent presence of the grain. The grain here is a lingering memory that wants to return to its material form, and yet it cannot. But this series is also very much about movement: nothing is fixed, nothing is static. Sand, or at least its shadow, becomes mobile, fluid, and transformative.
