Imprints of Passing Time Monotypes (2018)
A series of monotypes created for the Arts Council England funded exhibition ‘Imprints of Passing Time’ at Surface Gallery, Nottingham, UK.
Using actions that are overlooked or deemed as unproductive as means of artistic production, Fung performed these actions over a specific duration of time on paper with a layer of printing ink underneath. The resulted prints were created either from the body imprinted onto the paper or lifted from the image formed on the layer of ink. Consequently, these prints captured the time spent and actions taken.
