Paintings on found materials, 23 x 36 cm to 84 x 58,5 cm,  2012 -17

A series of paintings on found materials, describing the movement of the finger over the keyboard of a telephone when selecting a number to ring. All the numbers used are from the recent numbers folder of the artists mobile phone.  The digits of the keyboard are marked on the found plate, if possible using traces of usage, defects or holes in the plate as guides.  In this way the history and the material of the plate is fused with the path of the phone number.  The result is a trail describing movement, a choreography of the number, and a map around the landscape of the plate.

The titles are the phone numbers, but without the country code.
