other attachment, lost

Title: a way of containing air

Date: 2002

Medium: Printed envelope framed, 27 x 36 x 4 cms, in collaboration with Coracle Press

From artist:

A transparent envelope titled a way of containing air, though made in 2002, seems particularly apt in capturing and possibly posting air between places.  

A light gesture signalling the connection of one place with another.

Title: other attachment, also

Date: 2004–2024

Medium: Screenprinted paper, wax, string, 30 x 21 cms, printed by Dominic Fee

From artist:

The word also will be hung from another tree, to initiate a set of associations in the mind of the viewer on nature.

Title: other attachment, lost

Date: 2004–2024

Medium: Screenprinted paper, wax, string, 30 x 21 cms, printed by Dominic Fee

From artist:

I have made a large label with the word lost printed on it.

This I will hang on the fig tree whose fruit never ripens.

The fulfilment of this tree as it extends into space is restrained.

I am aware of that tension, like an aspiration being held back, the resultant suspension being a poetry of loss.
