In China, the technique of rubbing was historically used to distribute information ranging from canonical texts to personal inscriptions. With this in mind, I made a graphite rubbing of the street near my house on a roll of paper. The rubbing is then transformed into a scroll, bound with a rubber band and placed in a box covered in 24k gold leaf. This work marks the space between the two ends of this tradition.

It's an odd quirk of our language that the abbreviations of the words "saint" and "street" are an identical "St." and "St."
