Bleach Bum
A striking interplay of ink and bleach creates dynamic contrasts across the canvas surface, where chemical reactions between the materials produce organic, unpredictable marks and tonal variations. Sam Moyer harnesses the corrosive nature of bleach as an active collaborator, allowing it to eat into and transform the inked surface in ways that resist total artistic control. The work's mounting on wood lends a rigid, architectural permanence to what is otherwise a process defined by dissolution and chance.
