The nine highest priced paintings paid at auctions or private sales, 2010, 9 stiff paper punch cards

In this piece I've used nine punch cards, a medium that stores digital files, as a way to translate the 'aura of the digital' into a tactile form. Decoding the nine highest priced paintings into the binary code, using the Fortran system we remain with abstract holes that represent the paintings. I've chosen the highest priced paintings questioning ideas such as the reproduction of the image, the uniqueness and the elite.
