Moyra Davey’s photograph, Colin’s Math, integrates three distinct visual items, one of which is a handwritten tally of who-owes-what after a shared dinner with the initials above each column noting who-had-what. Davey’s practice – both her still photography and video, as well as innumerable written works – usually make us reconsider the moments (and their documentation) that we rarely second guess, or think are worth committing to memory.
