Construction Studies (Decuntstruct) presents a compact, quietly confrontational gesture in acrylic on cardboard, a modest support that Gomez transforms into a charged site of formal and linguistic inquiry. The work's title performs its own deconstruction, embedding a provocation within the language of architectural process, signaling that what appears to be a straightforward study of form is also an act of reclamation and subversion. At just 13.3 by 13.7 centimeters, the piece rewards close attention, operating at an intimate scale that demands proximity and resists the passive glance. Jay Lynn Gomez works across painting, collage, and drawing to examine systems of power, identity, and the built environment, and this small work distills those concerns into concentrated form. The choice of cardboard as a support is consistent with Gomez's commitment to materials that carry their own social histories, surfaces marked by utility and disposability that are then elevated through deliberate mark-making. The acrylic application engages the texture and fragility of the support rather than obscuring it, creating a dialogue between the painted surface and the material beneath. Signed by the artist and currently offered through P.P.O.W, this work represents an accessible entry point into Gomez's practice without sacrificing conceptual depth. Its small scale belies a densely considered position on language, structure, and what it means to construct or dismantle meaning within the space of a single image.
