This is one of the drawings I made in Glasgow in February 2003. I didn't think much about it at the time, but I showed it at Elmira College a few months ago... and it's been influencing my current work ever since. The idea of exposing objects, presenting them newly found, brushed off and examined is the thing. Like they've floated to the surface and been fished out and photographed, numbered and banded, then set free again. If I think about what is truly important to me right now, it is this. I continue to work on the big wall drawing and will update with details tomorrow. CIAO.
