There is a question to be asked (but like, really): how do we deal with the surplus of produced images of black bodies and their innocent ap- position on the seemingly untouched walls of galleries – very clean, virginal, all soft –? In there, sanitized blackness keeps bouncing back and forth; it doesn’t know where to go. On the way, it became whiter than whiteness; it is now stuck in the lightest of the dead-end, scrutinised and weakened (just a few symptoms of a condition called “overexposure”).
