language unlearned....

Ellen Dicola. Palmipsest. Gauze, thread, monofilament. 2010

The book deconstructed; language unlearned. Binding unstitched, its threads dangling. Unravelling.

Start again. The same threads can be used to form new words. A new language written by hand. 

Learning to speak our lives again, one word at a time.

flight risks

Novie Trump. Out of the Ashes. Ceramic installation.

Wings, the appendages of flight, rendered in clay -- the most earthbound of materials.

Jessica Drenk. Bibliophylum. Carved books, pinned on wall.

Wings, again. Carved from the pages of books. The ultimate flying machine of the human mind.

Louise Richardson. Feathers.

Images of women on tatty old feathers. On quills.

Women have always posed a flight risk.
