On the 5th of October I wrote an journal entry entitled 'The Correct Times', the following pieces are a continuation of that entry. All of the works in that section were inspired by Schwitters:
In this section I have encluded works that continue from the 'Correct Times' selection and the following pieces are more random than most of the other works that I have completed in this style.
In this section I have encluded works that continue from the 'Correct Times' selection and the following pieces are more random than most of the other works that I have completed in this style.
1. 'Framework' - Is it St. Pauls? Most of life is under construction and this piece shows us the design that makes up the landscape of towns.
2. 'Versions of this' - There could have been many versions of this! This is taken from one text and two pictures.
3. 'Starts as two' - Drilled as pegholes it says. The random pattern is taken one step beyond.
4. 'Lansoprazole' - This belongs to the group of medicines known as proton pump inhibitors. Lansoprazole is used to treat certain conditions caused by too much acid being produced in the stomach, These include gastric ulcers (stomach ulcers), duodenal ulcers (ulcers of the upper part of the intestine), gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (acid reflux or heartburn), acid-related dyspepsia (acid indigestion) and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. Lansoprazole can also be used to treat irritation and ulceration of the stomach caused by non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Acid is produced naturally in the stomach to help digest food. Excessive amounts of acid can irritate the stomach lining, causing inflammation, ulcers and other conditions. lansoprazole works by reducing the amount of acid produced in the stomach, relieving pain and helping to repair the damage.
5. Basic Idea - The basic idea for this was the circle and it went round in circles from there.
6. Seasoned - Seasoned timber to make a house a home where you can read your newspapers.
7. Crossbones - There is a history of Skull and Crossbones which goes beyond the pirates of this picture. Cut throats all of them to a man!
8. High Force - High Force is situated on the Upper Teesdale Raby Estate, near Middleton-in-Teesdale. Raby Castle is situated nearly 20 miles further East at Staindrop. Its good to get names for pieces from maps.
9. Troutbeck - Troutbeck can be found between Windermere and Ambleside, just off the Kirkstone Pass. The village of Troutbeck is spread along a hillside which runs from Town End to Town Head. I have been to Ambleside and very pretty it is too! Troutbeck sounds like a good name for a pop group.A cross between Trout Mask Replica by Captain Beefheart and Beck also an American musician. Trout Mask Replica by Captain Beefheart produced by Frank Zappa and nearly unlistenable to the untrained ears.
10. World-go-round - Upside down the world goes around and here. Who is the brave-maker?
11. Ribble Head - A place in the Yorkshire Dale, here it is in Black and White:
Ribble Head where no man can be saved.
12. Fashion Cafe - 'I wanna stay here, I don't wanna go anywhere, I could remain here' by Mark E. Smith of the group 'The Fall'. The dried out paintbrush says it all, where are the models, the girl thinks on that she wouldn't die?
More from this series will be forthcoming soon, stay tuned!
