28 photographs in 7 strips mounted on board
Mark Grotjahn's *28 Photographs in 7 Strips Mounted on Board* presents a methodical arrangement of photographic images organized into a structured grid of seven horizontal or vertical strips. The work reflects Grotjahn's interest in systems, repetition, and the interplay between order and visual perception. The mounting on board emphasizes the work's object-like physicality, blurring the boundary between photograph and sculptural artifact.

"The ‘Face Paintings’ allow me to express myself in a way that the ‘Butterflies’ don’t. I have an idea as to what sort of face is going to happen when I do a ‘Face Painting,’ but I don’t exactly know what color it will take, or how many eyes it’s going to have, whereas the ‘Butterflies’ are fairly planned out. They’re still intuitive, but I generally know where they are going. It’s a different kind of freedom, a different kind of expressionism. It’s personal without being overtly personal."
