Large Canvas 4 - 1991

Routine: I drew a map on a fabric strip in 2 colors, black for everyday routes and red for new routes. Then, I sewed a piece of fabric (clothe, linen, etc) to the work, cutout from my immediate surrounding. Lastly, I counted seconds for one hour, in my own time.

318 pieces, ballpoint pen and sewed cut out fabric on of strip of cloth (61x14cm each).

Personal Color Spectrum - 1989

This routine consisted in me looking for an object from my immediate surrounding, seeking to capture the color spectrum around me, as soon as I finished drawing my daily map. I stored the object inside a plastic sandwich bag and labeled it with the number of hours until the end of the year, number of days for the end of the year, my age and the number of the “Large Canvas 2” map for the day.

365 pieces, label, various objects inside 365 plastic sandwich bags (209x557cm in total)
