The deck is the field.

Panels extracted from various sources, 1987-2004. Action sequences. Compression moments. Bodies mid-impact.

The assembly process took eleven sessions across three weeks.

The polyurethane makes it permanent. This was deliberate.

A skateboard is already a pressure instrument. Add language about withstanding. The object becomes a document.
