“I want to see the traces, stains and dirt of my work, the layering of erased lines, errors and failures, the repeated re-tracings on the drawings, and the collage of corrections, additions and eliminations on the page that i am writing….These traces help me feel the continuity and purposefulness of the work, to dwell in the work, and to grasp the multiplicity, the plasticity as it were, of the task.”
