Oil on wood
65 × 65 cm
A mop is isolated from its everyday environment and enlarged until its familiar function begins to disappear. Against a dark background, its strands become a mass of overlapping forms that suggest muscle fibers, tissue, hair, or the anatomy of an unfamiliar organism. The ordinary object shifts between recognition and abstraction, appearing simultaneously inanimate and alive.
