Body of Knowledge

"Body of Knowledge" by Carroll Dunham is a mixed media work executed on assorted wood veneers, combining the organic warmth of natural wood grain with Dunham's characteristic blend of abstraction and figuration. The varied textures and tones of the veneers serve as an active surface, interacting dynamically with the applied media to create a layered visual dialogue. The work reflects Dunham's ongoing exploration of the body, desire, and psychological tension through bold, gestural mark-making and his signature graphic sensibility.
