"Sally Anderson’s landscape imagery is often taken second-hand, borrowed and filtered through the experiences of others...Heather's Sea View with GM Vessel and MM Banksias, 2021, is a riff on a view that does not strictly belong to her, and yet it does."
I've been dipping in and out of this for awhile and really loving it - a big mix of academic and more accessible essays, talks and even fiction (Calvino ❤️) Starts out talking about the connection between text and textiles cough #onbrand and there are some fascinating essays too on the practices of o/s artists who are new to me. Anyway can't remember who recommended this on insta but thank you #textileart #textilebooks #textilestexts #selfcareequalsbooks
"I have failed as a wife...woman... hostess...artist...I have not failed as a truth seeker." Glorious little Louise Bourgeois note c1958 in The Pleasurable, The Illegible, The Multiple, The Mundane at @artspacesydney, beautifully curated by Talia Linz #LB4eva 💫
Excited to see Hilma af Klint: The Secret Paintings this morning. A phenomenal exhibition for many reasons (1907!!) but also a beautiful meditation on what it is to be human, to be alive and part of a mysterious cosmos. Many of her works seek to bridge divides between the material and spiritual, male and female. It's lush and life affirming and just a wonder #hilmaafklint #thesecretpaintings ...continues at @artgalleryofnsw until 19 Sept
