Absolutely Vacuous takes its title from a comment by Paul Greenhalgh about certain exhibitions of ceramics & from Absolutely Fabulous, a BBC sitcom that mostly ridicules the empty lives of its characters. In progress, it will consist of a dozen wall-mounted tiles. Each is a lens whose exterior shifts from curved to rectilinear, a continuation of various series attempting to reconcile the circle & the square.
