Sediment on canvas; Gregory Allicar Museum of Art, CSU, gift of Ms. Stefanie Lucci, 2005.94

Like Larry Bell's work, I enjoyed learning more about these "Sediment on canvas" pieces by Mario Reis. The process and ephemerality are marvelous. This one, in particular, looks like a 19-century photo experiment or heliography drawing.
