Descrizione
L'installazione consiste in una scritta in neon bianco, disposta in 7 righe su una struttura di metallo, e sospesa con dei cavi attaccati al soffitto. "Joanna (chapter one) sat in the plane, smoke pouring from her nostrils. Outside, rain, sunset, mild azure; sable bulks awince with fire... and all these visible at once, while heaven, quartered like a billionaire's coat of arms, put on stupendous airs. Earth lurched and shivered in the storm's embrace but kept her distances, lifting a face unthinkingly dramatic in repose, as was joanna's. Disiccated rose light hot on bone, ridge, socket where the streak of glancing water - if a glance could speak - said, 'trace me back to some loud, shallow chill, underlying motive's overspill'...". Il testo è una citazione tratta dal poema di James Merrill 'The changing light at Sandover' del 1982.
