“If Clark similarly reframes ready-made phenomena, he occasionally embeds them in a more narrative matrix. A large portion of the exhibition is devoted to an installation on former detainee Omar Deghayes. Images of kittens and flowers, taken from cards sent to Omar during his detention, are projected onto the wall in succession. As he was allowed only reproductions, their fading suggests further degrees of removal from the real.”
