Product Description

Watching dust settle is to witness time passing. The repeated photocopying of musical scores as a way to share them creates notations of an almost immaterial medium – of dust and artefacts, of music and time. With hand-copied notations, each line and stroke is an imprint and memory left by different people. These traces are read and re-read by others, imbuing a new layer of colour and texture. The repeated acts of copying, reading and sharing slowly erode the previous markings, just like how time wears things down into seemingly minute and homogeneous dust.
