Project X is a collaboration with painter and art critic Marjorie Welish. We’ve been working on our project when Marjorie invited me for a collaborative dialogue in 2019. To start we had agreed on which words we would concentrate on, complex concepts from the book A work, and .../ by Marjorie. Also in addition, I suggested categories of words which have a certain attraction, a more musical association. I selected the words and worked them out into images. Marjorie responded to this with six images with drawings and actions: overlapping and superimposing images.
The images have now been printed, mine here in Amsterdam and Marjorie’s in New York. The giclee prints are folded as accordians (also called ‘lepporellos’ or zig-zag folds) and are brought together in an archival box. They will accompany an exhibition of our collaboration . More information will follow soon.
