The Library Paintings
In 2013, in an attempt to document the beauty of library books on the shelves, I visited a public library once a week throughout the year. Each week I painted a selection of 15 books that I found visually appealing. The date and the call number of the books were recorded with the intention of marking the precise time and location of the books. Once a month, I then selected one of these weekly sketches to be painted on canvas, in order to create a body of work that is a visual record of a year in libraries.
