Late Echo
“Alone with our madness and favorite flower
Excerpt from John Ashbery’s poem Late Echo from As We Know. Copyright © 1979 by John Ashbery.
We see that there really is nothing left to write about.
Or rather, it is necessary to write about the same old things
In the same way, repeating the same things over and over
For love to continue and be gradually different.”
Late Echo arose from a time, a place, and a shared daily reality of three artists in their surroundings, forced to repeatedly revisit the same space during a disparate time, echoing the transient or temporal changes observed.
Reflected as a visceral response to their psychological and emotional wellbeing, the exhibition engages with the documentation of such transitional moments, enquiring how the space provided new perspectives on difficult pasts and how this history can inform the current times.
