FIG. 04 — THE RECORD
Tam Nguyen writes the process down as it happens — sessions, materials, setbacks, and the parts that got scraped off. The entry stays up whatever the work becomes.
Day 28 — A pigment that refuses to sit still
Layer eleven is a cadmium that lifts the layer beneath it every time I glaze over it. Two sessions lost to this. Keeping both of them in the record.

Day 06 — Layers one to four, photographed and buried
Four layers down. Each one is photographed in the same light at the same distance so the sequence reads as one thing when the lot closes.
