BLINDSIDE Summer Studio

All documentation is under general suspicion of inexorably adulterating life. For each act of documentation and archiving presupposed a certain choice of things and circumstances.

Modern Shaman: Celebrity vs. Eccentric

“Space is a doubt: I have constantly to mark it, to designate it. It’s never mine, never given to me; I have to conquer it.” - Georges Perec[1]
