Town
Driving out of Christchurch I was conscious of the industrial area & how it would soon give way to fields & hills.

Quote from Jorge Luis Borges
I am back from the Mt. Cook trip and will put up stuff soon, but before those mountain pictures I though this was a pertinent quote.
A man sets out to draw the world. As the years go by, he peoples a space with images of provinces, kingdoms, mountains, bays, ships, islands, fishes, rooms, instruments, stars, horses, and individuals. A short time before he dies, he discovers that the patient labyrinth of lines traces the lineaments of his own face.

Podcast inspired by listening to one on chess, which suddenly had a bit about Marcel Duchamp, which I am quoting * in this one.

A well known Navahoe troublespot
That should probably be spelled Navajo, but I am ignorant when I dream. This is the first of three related dreams – or one dream with three images.

Off to Mt Cook tomorrow
There may not be any posts for a while – not due back till Monday – but I will be sketching.
I am also going to the Ashburton & Timaru art galleries on the way.
Duane Keiser – ebay auction
This ebay auction by Duane Keiser is getting a bit of attention – will be interesting to see how it goes.

Maori design – rubbing
This was a children’s activity, and I will research it more – but I did the rubbing & now it is here but not as I said in the last post as one of the 1000 – it is here for inspiration.
Later: I went back to the gallery & asked about the origins of the work. They could not tell me but gave me the card of the person who curated it. But I have not followed up & lost the card!
