Tumbling
Tumbling
Exquisitely
Transitorily
Visible as connected squares on our instagram profile, this chance to create something playful in celebration of impermanence was sparked by a landscape banded in three parts and big top tomfoolery with components plucked from collages created for the La Trobe Journal and Imprint magazine last year. As so often befits work made for own amusement (as deadlines loom large), it quickly grew to include a spray of flowers tucked behind the ear disturbed by a mouse, an amorous pair of Passenger pigeons momentarily separated, and a troublesome trio.
Catch them as they tumble, and (sometimes) divide.
