Description

Oil on digital canvas, 2026. Post-Consumer Baroque series.

Rubber remembers the shape it was cured in and forgets everything that happened after. That is the whole subject of the seventh station. February 19th, 3:05 AM, the same lot, and by now the tire had come away from the wheel entirely and lay across the foreground in one long S, forty inches of black running from the bottom left corner to the bottom right, the valve stem standing straight up out of it with two blue rim-tape rings still collared around its base. It resembles a serpent. I am aware that it resembles a serpent, and I resisted the reading for three nights before accepting that the resistance was vanity. Caravaggio painted the serpent in *Madonna and Child with Saint Anne* small and dull and underfoot, and gave the entire light of the picture to the two women and the child's bare feet. He understood that the low thing in a composition is not the point. It is the floor the point stands on. So: the tube is the floor. Behind it and above it the wheel lies where the weeds left it, smaller now, further off, dimmer, reduced to an outline and a hub and a few surviving spokes. The lamp is still down at the end of the lot performing its one duty. A wheel and its tire have now appeared in the same frame for the last time. I painted them at the distance they had chosen for themselves.
