Time spent here is proportional to productivity, though periods of difficulty and reverie are plenty. Thinking here is not always a logical process—ideas need time and space to unfold. Sometimes, I avoid this place of work, but must always return to it, even if there is no easy entry. For a way to begin, I sweep the floor. Concentrated rhythmic motion. A relationship with the floor is developed. The floor is a platform for thoughts and ideas. The floor is marked by traces of past movements and actions impressed in the surface. I watch it closely. Sweeping the dust off is like rubbing out—a subtractive process alluding to reductive formal and conceptual modes. Ideas of absence leading to intense or concentrated abstraction. Simultaneously, it is productive and generative process. The dust must disappear. Using only the broom, I sweep it into a channel that runs around the perimeter of the floating platform. the video is filmed in the first year studio the table on which the coffee cup rests is made to simulate the surface of the ground
