Trace Collectors is a self-publication of Min Jae Eom's SUNY New Paltz MFA thesis work; the artist attended Dankook University College of Art, in South Korea, for undergrad. "Everything around us has been touched, used, cracked, broken—evidence that reveals an object’s existence ​and experience. Eom creates simple surfaces and forms that, when carried on the body, slowly gather traces of the wearer. The marks that are collected through these time-based works are not simply scratches, dents, and stains; rather, they become a witness, a form of archive embodying the history and coexistence between user and object. These truly unique traces share a memory with the wearer, accumulating sentimental value and highlighting the most overlooked and intimate forms of contact."
