room of feathers

hello,

so

because i’m not a structuralist :) i’ve got a new idea – more lyric, more soft (more my?)

 

first question: jan or somebody would use this room where jan was last time? if not i would make there an installation…

 

i find my old poem (really old) and i think that it could be a nice beginning. i put it here in polish and i translated it into english, but it’s only a literally transcription.

 

z cyklu: w skończoności

 

czułbyś się źle w tym mieście                        

gdzie ulice są zbyt wąskie więc ciała

dotykają siebie a chodniki powyklejane są mozaikami z pierza

zdecydowanie źle

nie ma tu przestrzeni

nie można przestrze

lić sobie żeber szpargałem na wylot

 

nie przyjeżdżaj więc

nie chcę wcale nie chcę

 

 

from the cycle: in the finity

 

you would feel wrong in this city

where streets are too narrow so bodies

touch each other and pavements are pasting by mosaics from feathers

definitely wrong

here is no space

here you couldn’t overshoot

your ribs by bagatelle on another side

 

so don’t come

i don’t want it really i don’t want it

 

 

idea is:

1. put on the both side of windows (or the space where windows should be) transparent foil and between this “glass” put some old-style thing (dress, gloves, fan…)
2. in this room dump some feathers
3. somewhere write this poem (on the piece of paper? of the foil?)

everything should be soft, gray and dusty. (you would touch it but you in the same moment you see how dirty it is, so you take your hand back)

 

i would need:

1. foil (for example: http://allegro.pl/item453686358_folia_stretch_1_5_kg_transparentna_promocja.html)
2. feathers (it could be from a duvet http://www.jysk.pl/4/31/39/40/4110564/a/catalog)
3. tape (normal and doulble-side)
4. some (6?) small torch (something like that: http://allegro.pl/item471457564_aluminiowa_latarka_9_led_funkcjonalnosc_i_wygoda.html)

 

i could buy it in szczecin; another thing i would bring with me.

 

what do you think? :)

 

best wishes,

gosia

ps. you can name this space “space of memory”, “memory of space”, “space of absence” or “absence of space”…
