Gerund

"Doing" is the first part, a detail, of a larger project entitled "Gerund". The process of making consists of engraving an MDF by laser with gerund verbs, in this case, "doing". Then it is pressed into a blank piece of paper leaving an embossed word in that surface.
These process are relevant for the reading of the work for the pressure, when having made a mark on the paper, becomes an index and the action is suspended in time, almost contiuously repeating itself over and over again while being observed. The process of tension is allways present in the fibers of the paper that were affected by the pressure. So it is itself, materially something like a gerund, an incomplete action that is still happening and suspended in the while. The gerund words are a verbal option to delineate this process of suspension conceptually, by the word, and in the matter, by the process employed.
