Am experimentation following research from the philospher Jacques Derrida, the founder of deconstruction, meaning the being and time. Derrida explores the metaphysics of presence, the fundamental nature of reality and being. Linking his work with the idea that traces and marks are built up over time I set up a clock to write over time. As the minute hand went round the pen left a mark, bleeding into the paper. This created an abstract mark, that built up over time. The aesthetic qualities of the mark present how marks and traces become deeper and more prominent over time, as the pen bled through the paper and scraped away at the surface.
