found flaked paint on site on drawing pins
Joseph Calleja
2017

Flaked paint collected from locations within Leith Theatre is represented resting on drawing pins, hovering just above the ground demarking the parameters of the space and objects within it. Paint is rarely seen as on object itself. It adheres to what it hides and becomes the hidden object. The artist draws attention to this stratum by treating it as a sculptural object and leaves the material to inform and create its own aesthetic.
