Liquid Library

Photographic series, each 70x40cm

Pages of a geometry textbook scattered on the surface of the sea and photographed as they drifted sunk and dispersed made during a residency at the Gennadius Library Athens in 2014 - following from a body of work created by an element of controlled chance, compositions created by the water’s unpredictable flux, human rationality inevitably defeated by the randomness & chaos of natural forces.

Artwork by Victor Vasarely at the church of Pálos in Pécs, 1980. From the Budapest Municipal Photography Company archive.

Our Sadness

by Denis Johnson

There’s a sadness about looking back when you get to the end: a sadness that waits at the end of the street, a cigaret that glows with the glow of sadness and a cop in a yellow raincoat who says It’s late, it’s late, it’s sadness. And it’s a sadness what they’ve done to the women I loved: they turned Julie into her own mother, and Ruthe– and Ruthe I understand has been turned into a sadness… And when it comes time for all of humanity to witness what it’s done and every television is trained on the first people to see God and they say Houston, we have ignition, they won’t have ignition. They’ll have a music of wet streets and lonely bars where piano notes follow themselves into a forest of pity and are lost. They’ll have sadness. They’ll have sadness, sadness, sadness.

Banana Leaf, 1956.

“The photographs reproduced in this volume reveal strikingly the harmonious shapes and formations created by nature in crystal, stone, plants, animals, in earth, water, con- stellations, nebulae, clouds. We see the structural pattern in bone tissue and in the cross-section of the spine of a sea urchin; the design in the stripes and spots of animal fur, in the plumage of birds, in the endless variety of shells, in the skeletons of coral, and even in the feeding patterns of bugs and caterpillars. These photographs bring to light the surprising likeness between the designs we find in nature and the patterns created in human art, particularly in modern abstract and geometric design.”
