Rather than discarding these fragments, Thompson responds to their existing shapes and surfaces, allowing them to become the starting point for something new. The process gives material that might otherwise have been overlooked an opportunity to carry a different story.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"13711\" data-end=\"14076\"\u003eThere is an important element of relinquishing control within the series. Instead of deciding exactly what the composition should become, Thompson responds to the fragments as they present themselves, allowing unexpected relationships to guide the work. This approach closely echoes the intuitive and experimental character that defines her wider painting practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"14078\" data-end=\"14426\"\u003eThe reclaimed pieces therefore become more than remnants of earlier works.
