Street 1 & 2, 2020

This image came from a visit I made to an art fabricator in L.A. called Standard Sculpture. I had gone in to document the workshop where a Jeff Koons sculpture was being restored for my earlier series of works entitled Fabrication. As a memento, I snapped the entrance to the workshop as I left as a last-minute afterthought. It was only much, much later on that I came to feel that this could be a painting in itself. I was tempted to alter something between the two versions in this one but decided against it.
