Spic and Span in June and July, 2019 is part of an ongoing process of creating a variation of graphite and acrylic drawings on paper on canvas, each of which is linked to a month in the year. In these works Kaabi-Linke reflects upon her own practice of print making, musing whether a real time painting or drawing is even possible. In the end, each drawing relates to both time and space through the activity of filling time until the surface satisfies the conditions that end this process - when the work is complete is the only decision the artist can make.
