royal west academy show

October 23, 2011 Fi Burke

Reader's Digest has been selected for the 159th Royal West Academy show. Reader's Digest is a flourscape - framed archival photographic print and flour. The use of flour is intended to emphasise the unquestioning ease with which we ‘ingest’ language and translate it as thought.  It also represents the potential power we have over our diet of words to enable permanent or temporary changes in thinking.

The show opens on Saturday, October 30th and runs until December 31st, 2011 in Bristol.

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

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.
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.
