weird little reinterpretation of Wave Motion I by Keiji Uematsu on a tiny ceramic pot

[ID: a small ceramic pot with the image of a hand touching the water using only its fingertip, creating a pattern of circles from the waves, painted on the inside of the pot in cobalt blue. End ID]

The Mirror-Faced Grim Reaper in Meshes of the Afternoon (1943), dir. Maya Deren, Alexander Hammid

“This film is endowed with an acute sense of restlessness and alienation; reflecting this uncanny estrangement in the doubling, tripling and quadrupling of its central character, and in its cyclic narrative, a structure that seems condemned to repetition. Why is the hooded Death figure constructed as a kind of mirror? Are we dealing with Nietzsche’s notion of ‘eternal return’? (…) You could go on forever about the meaning buried in this particular work. It invites and eludes analysis.” – CINEMA AND DREAM-LOGIC IN MESHES OF THE AFTERNOON

This mess has been mewling and whinging at me for months from his perch in the studio, so I guess I better finish him before he takes Serious Measures. Second photo: an unfinished painting (…2009? 10?) I just fished out of the bottom of my flat file that proves, I suppose, that neither palette nor obsession has changed much for me over the intervening years. #embroidery #clamdangit #petriedish #fbf #gouache #meaty https://www.instagram.com/p/BsyNu6il3xI/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=v582cuhuq2cs

A “ghost signature” is produced just as described in the Loftis article. The process was much more effective in the days of fountain pens, with slow-drying India ink and a loose method of depositing the ink. The ‘glazed paper’ helped the process by preventing the ink from soaking in. The book was held sideways and the subject was encouraged to sign the book on half of a page, in their official hand and leaving as much ink as possible. The page was creased in the middle and the page folded back upon itself, creating a Rorschach-like inkblot, something for the mind to interpret in innumerable ways. Faces, bodies, animals, spirits, and monsters all appeared in the squished and smeared John Hancocks of the willing contributors to a Ghost Signature book.
