WORDS

“Poetry gives me the ears to hear myself, to listen out for mother nature”. Fi Burke

Truth

Truth

Commissioned by the University of Derby to create a text piece to be on exhibition for the visit by Concrete Poet - Eugen Gomringer “the father of Concrete Poetry”. I took my inspiration from Stuart Mill’s ‘Homage to Wyndham Lewis’ and Alfred Korzybski’s statement “the map is not the territory; the word is not the thing”.

Truth is a play on how we read and perceive the meaning of words and how it constantly remains open in a state of flux.

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.
