Pentimento is a visible or cognitive trace of the passage of time. In painting, it is an under-image painted over. In cognition, it is an earlier memory (primacy) overlain by a later one (recency). The traces in this piece reference the passage of my five-year history exploring the figure and metaphor of branching forms.
