Thomas Bernard Malamud discloses, in its own clear yet unabridged way, the artist’s major concerns: the objects and activities of the everyday as physical, material and intellectual decisions played out in space by a subject who is simultaneously approaching and diminishing. At once humorous, emotive and, to use Thomas Bernhard’s term, ‘corrective’, Thomas Bernard Malamud proposes new ways of thinking about the everyday as a series of necessarily deathbound, yet potentially joyful, decisions and displacements, additions and reductions.
