codex infinitum - the infinite book...

my solo exhibition - codex infinitum 

opened October 10 at Switchback Gallery...

 

the gallery entrance is now guarded by my book pillars 

 

Pulvis et umbra sumus - 'we are dust and shadow'

 

inside the gallery...

 there are large and small photographic prints,
 

a large book structure and a small handmade book

on the middle partition is my large print...

  Ancora Imparo - 'I am still learning'

which is also the name given to the installation

recreated in the middle of the gallery...

 

 

the installation contains the looooooong coptic bound book

codex inperfecto - the unfinished book

 

 

 behind the middle partition

 hidden from initial view...  

 

 

is the large 

 

(and beautiully lit)

 

 

 

  nec tamen consumebatur - 'and yet it was not consumed'

 

 

also in this space are three works from 2010 that long term blog readers

will already be familiar with... 

 

Novus libri scientia - The New Books of Knowledge  

   

Flammeus libri ardor - The fiery passion of the book 

and

 genius loci

as well as a small coptic bound book  

 

carpe diem

 

 

 

I'll share more of what's inside this small book 

and some more of the individual works in the show

*next time*

 

 

 

so with a last look over my shoulder -- it's on its own....
