In Gary-Ross Pastrana’s art of incessantly breaking down objects by quantifying them against their equivalents: through measure—in volume or time intervals, through value—monetary or historical, he continues to re-create entities and occurrences by transforming them into what can be construed as their equivalent substances that can either be as concrete as matter or mineral, or as abstract as music or language. By acquiring a piece of wreckage or an unusable article such as a broken-down car, he stretches out the idea of wholeness and the prevailing essence of what can be understood as a lost asset, a thing removed from its ordinary function as perceived by the majority of society, to turn it into art within its own set of valuation.
