Jedediah Caesar

Untitled (White Domino)

2006
Resin, pigment, studio detritus

5 parts, dimensions variable, each piece approx 38.1 x 38.1 cm

Caesar’s Untitled (White Domino) progresses the strategies of process art, creating finished pieces which are conceptually streamlined and aesthetically savvy. Cut from the same block,
each of the components is a cross section exposing the various materials suspended in the tinted resin, giving the impression of prehistoric drawings or excavated treasures found in slabs of exotic minerals. Presented in a henge-like arrangement, Caesar’s sculptures pose as luxuriant ruins, eliciting mysticism and wonder from a contemporary ‘archaeology’.
