"Chipped: A Journey Through Time and Texture" Step into a world wonders, where the stories of the past are etched onto every surface. From the crispy golden edges of French fries to the rusty, green-painted corrugated iron wall in Faroe Islands, Denmark, each chip tells a tale. Layers of worn auto paint abstractly reveal the passage of time and countless journeys taken. The Pa. German Shaving Basin from 1936 showcases delicate chips that hint at its long history with generations gone by. St. Mary Magdalene emerges from painted plaster with gentle chips that add character to her serene face. Implements of the Stone Age bear witness to ancient hands shaping tools for survival, their chipped edges revealing secrets lost in time. An ink pot found in Qumran whispers tales of forgotten words penned centuries ago on its terracotta surface. "Wanted a wife" declares a vibrant chromolitho poster, its corners slightly chipped but still brimming with longing. Once again, St. Mary Magdalene graces our presence - this time as a painted plaster figure - reminding us that even sacred art bears signs of wear and tear over time. A shallow dish from Saqqara stands as an artifact from Egypt's Old Kingdom; its travertine surface adorned with subtle chips that speak volumes about ancient feasts shared around it. Engravings depicting Early Flint Weapons offer glimpses into how our ancestors wielded these primitive tools - their chipped forms evidence of battles fought and won or lost throughout history. Finally, we encounter the head of a statue in Ostia Antica, Italy; weathered stone bearing chips that hint at stories untold yet waiting to be discovered within its silent gaze. In this captivating journey through time and texture, we find beauty in imperfection - embracing each chip as an invitation to unravel mysteries hidden beneath layers upon layers of history's touch.
