After I posted about her creative residue, Wendy sent me a link to a show she was in at the San Jose Institute of Contemporary Art last year called “Detritus.”

Detritus explores the leftover scraps and byproducts of the art-making process that artists do not discard for a number of compelling reasons.

Wendy exhibited empty sketchbooks with all the pages torn out. (More at KQED: “ICA’s ‘Detritus’ Looks at What Artists Leave Behind.”)
