Unframed drawingIn later years, after being trained as a visual artist, I got interested in the differences and parallels between drawing and photography. When I redrew a photograph of a young boy looking at a horizontal piece of paper, I re-experienced something of that primitive power of the image: the boy and I coincided and somewhere inbetween, reality as such was redefined as an object for exhibition. Photos from installation at Stedelijk Museum.
Immovably CentredEverything just chucked away. Subsidy handed back. A total failure. Fine. Well done. Id like to know when youre not going to be a failure. If youre not. And whether Im going to witness it in this lifetime. So vain. So weak. So lacking in backbone. I have to keep the whole show on the road while you just sit upstairs crying at your desk, your tears staining what youre only going to scrunch up again any second and toss into the corner. On that laptop of yours.
