ARMAND BOUA | Untitled

Please note that this work has recently undergone restoration. For restoration report, please contact the department. The work exhibits pinhole punctures along the top framing edge as well as to all four corners of the work. The work exhibits extensive loss, flaking, creasing and tearing throughout. All of this is the artist's intent and is in line with his broader practice. There is undulation/warping to the paper (an indication of having been rolled) which similarly is inherent to the work. There appears to be an area of clear residue, running horizontally across the centre of the work, where the papers have been joined together.
