Oscar Tuazon

Two works: (i) I Can't See (Papercrete Edition 18); (ii) I Can't See (Papercrete Edition 16)

These two works by Oscar Tuazon belong to his *I Can't See* series, rendered in papercrete — a hybrid material combining paper pulp and concrete that reflects the artist's ongoing interest in rough, utilitarian construction and DIY building practices. The works embody Tuazon's characteristic exploration of architecture, physicality, and the limits of perception, with the raw, textured quality of the papercrete lending the pieces an unfinished, almost provisional presence. Together, the two editions suggest a serialized approach to form-making, inviting consideration of subtle variations within a repeated gesture.
