I began this blog at the beginning of 2010 as a kind of thinkdump for the process of being an artist and how it differs radically from my intentions, how domestic reality constantly interferes with the creative. In writing this blog I am trying to embrace these interstitial episodes as being the creative.

Endgame (1957)

Nell: Nothing is funnier than unhappiness.
Nagg: Oh?
Nell: Yes, yes, it's the most comical thing in the world. And we laugh, we laugh, with a will, in the beginning. But it's always the same thing. Yes, it's like the funny story we have heard too often, we still find it funny, but we don't laugh any more.

another page in the story

Dear Anna-Marya,
Thank you so much for taking the time and trouble to submit an application for The Library of Lost Books.
I am very sorry to tell you that you were not selected to take part in the project.
When we began with our small collection of discarded library books we wondered if we would manage to get 30 artists interested in the project. In the end we had over 230 artists wanting a book!
We were incredibly impressed with the quality of work that everyone submitted. If we could have found the space and had the books we would have wanted to offer a book to everyone, so please do not think that not getting selected is in any way a negative criticism of your work.
Keep making wonderful work and enjoying the process,
with best wishes,
Susan (a.k.a The Librarian)
