"Inscription and intensity, memory and desire, lines and disruptions, blanks, abysses...
Thomas SING's first book comes to grips with the intellectual and artistic references of more than two decades. It is an open invitation to hunt down their traces, a visual journey, just as tender as it is violent. By no means an anthology but a completely original work coming full-circle, providing a base for his new projects to dock onto.
With all its images shot on film, and its texts flashing through, 'Until I Break' sets memories free, just to sweep them away. In their up-lighting, yet even more in their fading, they refer straight to that inner experience to which SING's newest works are aiming like vectors of passion, whose beginnings and ends always lie outside the picture; to the point that can only be thought of as endlessly far way, where all perspectives collide, never in reach, but always with the vertiginous necessity of a corps obscur, a black hole."
