The polarity between the sensational and the mundane is also the dichotomy between the sensational and the sensory in which the latter is left unmarked, unvoiced and unattended to, as a banal element of the everyday.

i've never really been good with still life
and so, i trace
there is something powerful in repetitions
"second nature" Taussig says
replication
makes the mundane
but also empowers
tracings
mimic
building up symbols
