Zuzana Kovar – ‘Transfer’

Description

Transfer

Transfer explores the material dilution of boundaries between bodies and spaces. It explores the transfer of material/ matter from one body or space to another. Through such an exploration, the works seek to allude to the heterogeneous and volatile nature of bodies and spaces, as well as all other entities generally.

The exhibition presents a series of carbon paper prints. These prints utilise carbon paper, which is seen as a volatile medium, transferring ink upon contact to not only a paper substrate but simultaneously to the fingers of the maker and adjacent surfaces. Each print adopts a mark that is repeated across the surface of the page, creating a textural field with naturally occurring variations resulting from the pressure exerted to make each individual mark, the amount of ink that is transferred and the volume of ink present on the carbon sheet.
