New drawings and paintings by Robert Jack. Born in New Haven, Conn. in 1971, Jack lives and works in Brooklyn. Occupation is his third solo exhibition in New York.

Jack’s newest body of work comprises 12 drawings and three small paintings on board. Occupation focuses on the vacant and the unoccupied. It captures the moment right before information is transmitted, the very moment when all senses make room in order to receive the next bit of data. These negligible silences are usually not even registered by consciousness, Our perception suppresses these blanks to build an apparent continuity, just like the boundaries between frames in a film are imperceptible.
