Continuity rather than retrospective status

This history is not presented as a closed retrospective narrative. Oraczewski’s current practice continues to develop the structural concerns visible across earlier cycles: light and shadow, material density, the instability of surface, identity, memory and the collision of apparently opposing forms.
