# Jason Thompson: *Sacred and Ordinary*

Dates not published · on view

Paintings and assemblages built on pieces of found, weathered wood, their marks copied and reworked over time.

Thompson starts from a small panel of pre-worn wood and lets each work grow outward from it, like a branch from a trunk. The wood’s shape dictates the form, and its existing lines shape the marks that follow.

He makes unplanned marks, then copies, echoes and buries them under more marks; some survive, others are painted over. The image builds up from whatever outlasts its own remaking. Thompson lives in Liverpool and has shown recently in Tokyo, Kyoto and Copenhagen.
