In this work, a fragmented image of a Kodachrome slide is printed across three rolls of cotton rag. As one looks at the slide depicted, one notices a gap, as well as a recurrence of parts of the image across the rolls of paper. The photo prints, uncut from the roll of paper on which they are printed, begin pinned on one side of a wall, and descend on the other, following the architecture, and curving down to the floor and back into the roll. As the photographs are kept on their rolls and presented in the gallery space, the production of the photographic print is brought from the studio into the gallery space. In the absence in the image, a void is created in the history depicted. Who was the person? Where was this? Why were they cut out?
