Interesting this, to me at least, is the implication that
the work is either about oneself or about others' selves.
One of the things i enjoy about early Lang-po is the
emphasis on 'the work'.
A discourse of voices, as distinct
from between 'voices'.
Plays back into interactions between seams and seamlessness
which Pierre Joris pointed in his talk on collage at the
Mottram day - keith mentioned it today. Leads to pressing
questions on how seams and seamlessness are perceived /
value-attributed, and to what purpose decisions are made.
Retention of imperfection in this case, preferred to
cleaning it up or editing the awkward out.
the muddy boots of the child running in from the garden
across the page spread for that zen moment by a
calligraphic practitioner.
