This piece was devised in relation to the thematic of 'collection' for the Women's Writing Group which met at Royal Holloway, University of London in 2004-5. In making the piece, I captured stills from an 8mm film taken of my mother in the late 60's. I then superimposed onto these still images a collection of handwritten notecards that were given to my mother, along with a collection of recipes, when she was married. The 'poem' relates to the idea of collection in general as well as my own particular response to this word and image collection here. |

This piece was devised in relation to the thematic of 'scale' for the Women's Writing Group which met at Royal Holloway, University of London in 2004-5. Each of these ten lines, printed on separate sheets, were hand-bound in a small book. I intended to use language to evoke a sense of scale as qualitative relation. |
