But things are so complicated and tangled together - I can't seem to seperate them out, I don't know how to untangle things - Haruki Murukami

more work

As part of my preparation for the 'exhibition' next week I have placed an envelope in the corenr of room. Inside the envelope are my threads. Not sure whether to draw or sew onto the outside of the envelope...











As a concept I very much like the idea of placing a 'readymade' object in the corner - and preferably one that is very unrelated to corners - without some thought. That will require much deeper thinking by me to be clever there! But I like how it would not be expected in that place, how curiosity is heightened by only just being able to see what is inside. 
I placed it in two ways - one across the corner - which actually encouraged the observer to go into the corner too to see how it is held there and the other was flat against the wall













I think it has cleaner line.
I am still very much taken with the unusualness of an envelope in the corner of the room!

More investigation to do.
