Counsel of the Spent (Common Objectives) - Tapa blanda

Reseña del editor

It is an experiment in sequential, narrative poetry, where images live next to text. Sparse, material language combines with drawings based on the 3D topographical radar data of the Eyjafjallajkull volcano from the National Land Survey of Iceland. It draws from storytelling and geological time and space through episodes of vulcanology. Can we begin to grasp the scope and scale of geological change, and human intervention within it, by embodying it at the human scaleby in fact becoming mineral ourselves? Caitlin Berrigan has created special commissions for the Whitney Museum of American Art, Harvard Carpenter Center, and the deCordova Museum. Her work has shown at Storefront for Art & Architecture, Hammer Museum, Anthology Film Archives, LACMA, and Goldsmiths London. Berringan is a professor of emerging media at NYU Tisch Photography & Imaging.
