A perfect checkerboard of black and white tiles, each one filled with repeated symbols — interlocking forms that resemble stylized monograms or heraldic marks, rendered alternately in white on black and black on white. Scattered throughout are tiny decorative marks, almost like footnotes or signatures, creating a sense that each symbol carries notation, commentary, a burden of meaning. The composition reads simultaneously as formal textile, as code, as a page of text, as a field of repeated identity markers. The strict alternation creates optical vibration — the black and white squares seem to shimmer, to advance and recede, while the symbols themselves remain perfectly legible, perfectly repeated, perfectly contained within their geometric cells.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Zoila Sosa\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTitle:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Checkeredism #107\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSeries:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Checkeredism (333 works, ongoing)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMedium:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Original digital artwork\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDate:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e August 2026\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Variable \/ digital file\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStatement\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCheckeredism #107\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e introduces language, symbol, and communication into the series' inquiry. Where #106 reduced the self to a single enigmatic mark, #107 multiplies that mark, makes it repeatable, codifiable, capable of being transcribed and transmitted. The tiny decorative flourishes suggest annotation — that each choice carries not just consequence but meaning, interpretation, the need to be explained or justified.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe work asks: What happens when consequence becomes communicable? When the self is not just a pattern but a repeatable symbol? The perfect alternation suggests that choices, once coded into language or symbol, lose some of their particularity — they become interchangeable, transferable, part of a larger system of meaning. Yet the persistence of those tiny marks — those signatures, those notes — suggests that even as we are absorbed into pattern, we insist on being read, on being marked as distinct.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Zoila Sosa \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe buyer receives:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x original print ( 88cm x 88cm): Hand-Signed, dated and numbered (1\/1) by the artist.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-Resolution Master File: for digital display.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProcess Video (MP4): the original time-lapse video capturing every step of the process resulting in the picture\/image created as the visual manifestation of the artist’s thoughts, vision and creative process.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe buyer can pay with a cheque, bank transfer or credit\/debit card, directly to the artist, once approved to purchase the artwork.
