Wade Guyton’s One Month Ago functions as a conceptual artist’s book that compresses time, documentation, and mechanical repetition into a sparse, serial format. Rather than cataloging finished gallery works, the publication acts as an extension of his studio environment, capturing a sequenced progression of daily ephemera, printed matter, and digital captures.
The work is characterized by austere pacing, unembromished page layouts, and the deliberate embrace of low-resolution digital artifacts and printer feedback. By presenting these everyday records in book form, Guyton translates the procedural rhythm of his studio into a tactile, printed object that questions how images are archived, duplicated, and stripped of context over time.
