Referencing the aesthetics of traditional papercraft and bookmaking, Dan Rees has employed the somewhat unpredictable technique of marbling to produce this new body of paintings. Here, marbling becomes a vehicle for subtly subverting aesthetic hierarchies, a hallmark of the artist’s approach. The process itself resists precise control: the chance operations inherent in marbling produce unpredictable surface patterns, which Rees then activates through the careful addition of pencil, charcoal or crayon.
