12 Words One Should Never Step On
Going back to the part in the previous post about Leslie Durst commissioning 10 artists over the last decade to make 12 works each, which then get gifted — Well it turns out I am one of the recipients of this year’s gifts! I was supposed to find out at the party, but apparently in failing to see the whole exhibition (at one point Leslie came round and stressed we should see the whole thing) I missed the part revealing this year’s recipients.
Needless to say, I’m honored. It’s one of the Kristy Edmunds rugs from the series Twelve Words One Should Never Step On – the blue one that says ‘Spirit’ (I’m kinda glad I didn’t get ‘Poo’.)
The Butterfly Effect got an Oregonian review, that explains the curatorial philosophy behind it.
