...lies Fukushima
My piece for the Elon Faculty Biennial 'Art Kit' exhibition:
braille text, scrapbooking embellishments
Scrapbooking embellishments serve to adorn experiences “preserved” between
the pages of ready-made scrapbooks: some moments from our past are made pretty,
while others are implicitly erased. In
the piece “Between Here and There Lies Fukushima” these embellishments are poetically
transformed into braille text on the gallery wall.
"Here" is vague, "there" is vague... where is Fukushima exactly? The text metaphorically points to a kind of blindness and invisibility.
