Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. The canvas is unlined. There is light wear at the extreme turning edges. All of the gum medium appears intact and stable. There is evidence of lifting and gum separation throughout the work. The gum hues have softened with time. There is evidence of fibers and hairs on the gum elements, which appears inherent to the artist's working method. Framed under Plexiglas.

Catalogue Note
"A lot of my work is about what's abstract and what's pictorial. Is it bubblegum, or is it an abstract painting using bubblegum? The energy comes from walking that line and watching things dip this way and that." Dan Colen
