Pratchaya Phinthong, A piece that nobody needs, 2012

Blank A3 paper which has been attached on the wall during a whole show and encapsulated in a museum box system
29,7 x 42 cm, framed 50 x 39 x 5,8 cm
Unique

A piece that nobody needs gives symbolically, its sense and scale to exhibition’s time. A white sheet of paper attached to the wall, it is a marker, a mould in which the time of the exhibition will leave its trace: impeccable at the exhibition’s opening, the paper (specifically chosen by the artist for its reactivity) is destined to be transformed with exhibition’s time. Like a time capsule, the work will reveal itself.
