Post Script: postcards
Following the closing of Cuttings, postcards began to appear, one by one, in my mailbox. Although signed, numbered and dated, I couldn't decipher the signature of the sender. However, clues suggest that he lives in Sebastopol.
Post Script: Does anyone out there know who sent these?
More cuts: walks and poetry
The installation, mtlaugwalkcuts was inspired by a walk that I took to the summit of Mt. Laugarvatn in Iceland. I recorded the shapes of the walk with a GPS device and then printed out into 23 sections. The line sections influenced the contours of the constructions. More images of the individual works can be found on my website on the third page of mixed media/ constructions.
During the exhibition at RiskPress, I hosted poetry walks in and outside of the gallery and recorded their shapes with a GPS device. We chanted the words, "walking like reading like cutting like..." while looking at the artwork on the walls. Words appeared and found their place on the concrete floor of the gallery. These words and more may find another place as I continue this work with cuttings.
Other words that surfaced but didn't appear on the floors but may appear elsewhere in the future are:
multiple lines, icey undulations, cold empty, sequential, serial striations, slivers and slices, shafts and shifts, gray-day shuns, uninterrupted, light of rain, shimmering ground, curves, edges, distillation, energy, music, enigmatic void, an architecture of color, meandering texts, gun metal striations, white ice open, the architecture of a cut, cuts squared, grounded sticks and stones, graphite lines go by, waves, piano keys, subtle shifts, tracking, folding, bird perches,....
