The works assembled here span multiple periods and media—including photography, drawing, painting, video, sculpture, artist’s books, and installation.

Throughout the collection, forms materialize through accumulation, interruption, translation, displacement, and error. Images shift between physical and digital states; lines acquire volume; recorded material is reorganized; fragments persist through successive transformations.

Architectures of Residue brings together works where each operation sets the conditions for the next.
