This work is composed by 12 small blocks (140 x 140 mm) with changeable depth. Blocks are made with different material like tickets, bill, sketch, writing notes and micro-sculptures. Every day, I build a stratum on each piece. That's my archaeology by reverse ! 12 blocks for 12 years. Block #1 is one year old, block #2 is two years old ... block #12, twelve years old ! This work started in 1990 and is finished at 4 march 2003.

Thanks for your comments Margot and Arteologist !

& to answer to Margot's question : at the beginning I seldom took photos, or punctually as those - they are slides - because it was difficult not to want preserve a trace. Sometimes I photographed all the blocks together. It is then towards the end of work that I photographed them systematically, but with a poor quality of images, which doesn't support the enlarging. But these photos are visible on my site : http://pascale.baud.free.fr ;-)

Um hum...a tiny bulletin board in each box?! Ingenious, and beautiful -- little "ancient" artifacts. Will you have a box set one of each? *hoping*

Tout ceci a disparu, recouvert d'une multitude de couches...

A un moment donné, j'ai rendu compte de chaque "strate" en prenant une photo par jour... seulement mon "instamatic numérique" de l'époque n'étant pas particulièrement dopé aux pixels ne m'a laissé que des photos de piètre qualité.
