Tomb stone

This was a one-month performance. In April 2001, I took a tomb inscription from Northern Wei Dynasty, and found an abandoned hundred-year old tombstone
in a cemetery in Brooklyn, New York City. I placed these two tombstones to face each other and filed them together until there were no traces left from the original inscriptions. During this period I used rubbings to record the process in which inscriptions wore away. After a month the tombstones were completely
worn down.
