The visual, as we experience it, constantly shifts between the seen and the unseen, and yet, to become an “image”, something, something even quite slight, must take hold and linger. The Tape Print Series invites the viewer to consider the “sticky nature” of the image. Images are “held” by the materiality that shapes them, much like a footprint is held in the compression of snow. In these linked "Tape Print" works images of the front and back (or, sticky) side of common green masking tape is inkjet printed onto the front and back of Japanese paper.
