I balance myself carefully
inside my shrinking body
which is nevertheless
deceptive as a cat's fur:
when I am dipped in the earth
I will be much smaller.
On my skin the wrinkles branch
out, overlapping like hair of feathers.
In this parlour my grandchildren
uneasy on sunday chairs
with my deafness, my cameo brooch
my puckered mind
scurrying in its old burrows
little guess how
maybe
I will prowl and slink
in crystal darkness
among the stalactite roots, with new
formed plumage
uncorroded
gold and
Fiery green, my fingers
curving and scaled, my
opal
no
eyes glowing.

Besök i konsthallen
Avtryck och Mellanrum - Beök Konsthallen
WALEAD BESHTY – ett diagram av krafter
Denna utställning av den i Los Angeles verksamme konstnären Walead Beshty (f. i London 1976) presenterar verk från de senaste tio åren i form av en platsspecifik installation gjord för Malmö Konsthall.
Walead Beshtys konst påminner oss om hur viktigt det är att sätta värde på det förgängliga i vardagen, framförallt dess glapp, pauser och mellanliggande perioder. Dessa mellanrum har alltid varit centrala i Walead Beshtys arbeten. I hans tidiga verk representeras det mellanliggande temat bokstavligen av de platser han valde att fotografera. Hans Excursionist Views (2001–2005) visar misslyckade, folktomma modernistiska bostadsprojekt som vacklar mellan evakuering och rivning, Island Flora (2005) dokumenterar växter, ogräs och vegetation som fått växa fritt på vägars mittremsor, medan serien med fotografier av övergivna köpcentra, American Passages (2001–pågående) presenterar den merkantila och kapitalistiska mardrömmen om tomma och stängda affärer.
Beshty gör konst av det som finns mittimellan men också om avtryck. När ni tittar på Fedex kuberna ser ni hur glaset har krossats från resandet när de har skickats runt.
Sprickorna blir som ett slags minne. De har avtryck på sin yta av en händelse.
Din uppgift är nu att fundera på följande frågor:
1,Vad lämnar du för avtryck varje dag? (På världen, människor, datorn, miljön)
Skriv ner och berätta, jämför med en vän. Minst en halv A4 sida.
2, Rita en bild av ett avtryck du gör varje dag på ett A4 papper. Valfri teknik, tex blyets, tusch, akryl, collage.
