For his Ground Rules series, Gates repurposes gymnasium floorboards from decommissioned schools across the city of Chicago. Reassembled into minimalist compositions, the works at first appear as large abstract paintings. Only the seemingly random lines and shapes of colours – made from the floor tape that once mapped the courts – gesture to the wooden boards’ previous existence.
