There are many ways how to meet someone in silence.

i thought they are more like boots (but the idea is much less poetic and powerful i know )
i love the dashes!
i love it all

hey you're here
boots is good! i see that too, it's all a matter of scale
and thank you!
the piece seems kind of extreme to me - i'm not sure exactly what it's doing but i feel like it's doing it as hard as it can

it is strong indeed, i agree.

Saw this and thought it's going to fall, Isabelle beat me to it. Well I guess the tower of babel did. Ah those little dashes, they ground it .

RichardLeach In reply to ebbing-gale [2014-04-05 23:51:28 +0000 UTC]

Yes and thanks. Interesting about those dashes, the last item to go on, and the piece felt finished then. Tiny elements that make a difference.

Little dots and little dashes , always surprising what they can add to a piece.Β

thanks, Ado. the piece evolved over a few days and those dashes were what made it feel finished for me

btw, i wrote some comments on your piece in stash. brain-storming type stuff.

Might the little yellow scrap be a hint at Babel? Β  (Well, it was for me anyway.)

Yup
That was not planned from the beginning but the scrap turned up and fit so well.

it's fun to use. such a neat and solid black. of course, the aged sheets have little imperfections - which makes them even better for someone like me.
