Anacoluthic Polyphonies

Ruminating is a piece about a mental state in which thought turns back on itself again and again, disconnected from its surroundings.

Ceramic, wire wrapped with yarn, and a frame holding a textile piece woven on a handloom.

The sculptural object consists of an organic ceramic form threaded with a red yarn that passes in and out, repeating its path without moving forward. The gesture evokes a thought that persists, returning endlessly to the same thing.

Beside it, a frame woven with white yarn against white canvas remains untouched: a space where nothing happens. The red — which might have been a vital thread of connection — never reaches it.

This piece emerged from a poem I wrote while working on Bringing the World into the World.

INTENSELY, LIFE

[POEM]

heart in hand

breath, the taste of pomegranate in the sun.

to embrace what burns

urgent, urgent

a voice says “careful”,

but

no

what for?

when it is hunger.
