Spending Time with Words

August 25, 2021 Fi Burke

I think a part of me has been a bit shy of words up until now….believing that a picture could paint a thousand of them easily so, why the need? This from someone who loves books and has run out of book shelves! This from someone who has used words in previous works! This from someone who is in awe of good writing, in how it transports us, how it ‘speaks’ our language!

As I speak, I am embarking on a journey of spending time with words again; revisiting them, exploring language, text and writing in all its forms. Looking at how words and imagery can work in harmony - with me as some sort of conductor.

It involves discovering different writing styles, writing ‘morning pages’ and giving way for the pen to flow.

Thank you Arts Council.

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.
Experimenting with getting editions from my Kant series printed onto square Hahnemühle paper (rather than as orbs behind glass). I'm pleased with the quality.
