description:
|
In his number series paintings, Becker names each piece after the street in which the found object was found. "It synthesizes my contextual identity into one direct and minimal whole, and is the product of experimentation with obscuring an oddly shaped object. The result is a compelling shield-like form that defines itself as a hybrid of painting and sculpture. I transformed a piece of trash into an abstract icon". - Daniel Becker
