The Inverted World Exhibition
As I sit her with my cat on my knee to keep me warm, I’m thinking very fondly of Bruce’s fire drums and the cosy, cheerfulness of that night a few weeks ago that was our last exhibition….and remembering that I haven’t posted pictures of my work for the occasion – so here they are!
- the sky flies in the bird
- the dress wears a beautiful girl
- the breeze is brushed by a woman’s hair
- her skin warms the sun
- the road walks in the man
- dark sparks fill the light
- the glove puts on it’s hand
- the sky flies in the bird
- the mirror looks at itself in my face
- i am written into the world
- the poem holds a hand in it’s pen
