OVERLAPPING

 

Recently landed: Overlapping

Whether it is writing about dance, or collaging about dance, or creating a website to showcase the exquisite work of Gold & Silversmithing alumni, and the opportunity to see a detail of our artists’ book, Restoring corridors, fit for a Nightingale, in the gallery, it is an honour, a pleasurable honour. And one of many overlapping parts, just the way the two of us like it.

Continuing reading on Marginalia.

Gracia Haby & Louise Jennison
Tracing a moving outline (II)
Thinking of a transitory tapestry of images that settle on the skin after a performance — including details from Lilian Steiner’s 2018 KCA piece, Memoirs for Rivers and the Dictator, featuring the vibrational silhouette of Lilian herself, resisting the solidity of becoming earthenware circa 1790–1810 — can collage fix a fleeting encounter, document the persistent pattern of perpetual change, as different source materials push up against each other, perhaps.

 
 
Gracia Haby

I have been collaborating with Louise Jennison since 1999, making artists’ books, collages, large-scale installations, prints, drawings, zines, and various tales. Besotted still, it appears, with paper for its adaptable, concealable, revealing nature, we use an armoury of play, the poetic and familiar too, with the intention of luring you into our A(rtists’ books) to Z(ines).

As artists and wildlife carers, our practice frequently concerns the natural world, addressing themes of conservation and biodiversity. Our home-based studio is also home to our wildlife shelter, Tiny but Wild.

I collage with words about dance for Fjord Review.
