About Me
- Laurie Price
- From 2009: A poet and artist, I've moved back and forth between using language and objects for a long time. The challenge? Creating something from nothing. But as there really is no such thing as nothing, I gather and redistribute. This goes for writing and object making. The sources are multiple, various and continuous. // En 2009 escribí: Poeta y artista, me he movido de un lado a otro entre usar lenguaje y objetos durante mucho tiempo. ¿El reto? Crear algo de la nada. Pero como realmente no existe la nada, lo que hago es juntar y redistribuir. Esto se aplica a la escritura y la fabricación de objetos. Las fuentes son múltiples, variadas y continuas. The original blog: © 2009-2022 Laurie Price | All rights reserved. Gracious economies #2: © August 2023. Laurie Price. | All rights reserved. Thank you!
I am drawn to those intricate machine guts type of things too, but don't know why. You took those photos in the place where you found the object, right? I ask because the background with the almost impressionistic graffiti sheds a whole other light on it.
ReplyDeleteNice!
....I'm sure the "almost impressionistic" choice of words is wrong, but you know what I mean, right?
ReplyDeleteYes! That's the answer to both questions -- it was propped up on the cement "windowsill" that may be a future window if they ever finish the damn construction for the supposed new school of architecture ... on my callejon. This construction (obra) has been going on for years -- it starts and stops, depending on the severity of the economic crisis at any given moment, it seems.
ReplyDeleteI also took 2 wonderful small copper spools from the object on 2 separate occasions ... it was on that windowsill for nearly a week, so ... it was irresistible.
Thanks for commenting Lynn. I'm playing a bit with the 3rd image now -- will send you the results when I have some.
