Exchange 5
An intriguing response which I really loved, a book the cover of which had been removed and sections of pages were folded and secured tightly with knotted embroidery silks. It felt secretive or private because I couldn’t access the piece fully.Â
I waited for several days to see if I felt I should dismantle the work to see if there was more or if I felt that was too intrusive and make my response only to what I could see as. My curiosity got the better of me and I decided to cut the threads and open the pages
Inside, within the hidden pages were a number of scribble-like images, some like small drawings others of writing. None were recognisable as either a particular thing or words I could read. They had a wonderful spontaneous quality, expressive and childlike.
