“Untitled (Still Life) is about recomposing the world from the standpoint of what is usually held off the frame, with attention directed toward what constitutes the support structures of of daily life and as painting as practice, maintained in displacement. Cardboard boxes and fragments of packaging units made to be compatible with objects they support and protect in daily life take center stage in this assemblage, which also features a framed drawing, but only in the form of a scribble or a sketch for an idea. The composition attempts to define a place through the margins, taking as point of departure precarious and nomadic positions of bodies, objects and tools, while bringing the frame, the discarded package and the support system to the center of focus.


The painting carries a personal ethnography of everyday infrastructural items that shape and define the possibility of painting, and in doing so, reveals the ethnographer-surrealist in Leyla Gediz: logistics of transportation, movement, protective cardboard boxes, a tin can and a framed pencil sketch on paper are freed from their subordinate position and turned into autonomous objects staring back at the viewer with a newfound incompatibility and disarticulations within the composition.
