Reader's Digest

September 29, 2010 Fi Burke

Reader's Digest is part of the Big Draw group exhibition 'Gesture' taking place at Crow Studios in Derby.  The show runs from October 1st to October 16th, 2010. Opening times are Wednesday to Saturday 11am to 3pm or Mondays and Tuesdays by appointment (please call curator Saira Lloyd on 0786 7787547) Reader's Digest builds on Fi's previous theme of the notion that words are 'ingested' and the work is made in flour.

"The use of flour is intended to emphasise the unquestioning ease with which we ‘ingest’ language as thought.  It also represents the potential power we have over our diet of words to enable changes in thinking".

Crow Studios is at 29 Northern Road, Derby DE1 1LR

Autumnal scenes from the River Dee at dusk. Mixed feelings - love the light, the colours, the glow. Not so keen on the day moving to night so early. Why does it take me by surprise every year !? 😱
From the archives! A prompted 'journey' back today to all things flour and bread. This was part of an installation at the wonderful Harrington Mill Studios as part of the British Art Show Fringe. I'm thinking 2011 or 2013?
Someone's enjoying a strawberry instead of my usual monkey nut offering!
Scenes from this week's trip to London. All in one day - me and a Gormley, Brit Museum architecture v's mid century on the side of the rail track.
