‘folded eggs’

archive

... without mindful thought


 “I make images without mindful thought of politics, history or even memory. Only later, when I peer with purpose at these clothes, objects and panoramas, does the undoing of Salvador Allende gather in my mind.”

A single line of text runs through ‘folded eggs’, below the images and centred in the book so the essay neither begins at the start nor finishes at the end.

 The NYK FUTAGO is with ‘folded eggs’on the high seas out of Hong Kong, due Auckland 21.00h, 29 August 2018, with the assent of typhoons in the ‘hood.

‘folded eggs’ UPDATE
The book printed late May 2018 for a September release with @photoq_bookshop at Unseen Amsterdam ... Vapour Momenta Books will continue to offer the regular edition at NZD$35, and the special edition with artist print at NZD$55, free shipping worldwide, until after the New Zealand launches, Auckland and Wellington, mid-December 2018.

The next showing will be at Friends With Books Art Book Fair, Friday, October 19, Hamburger Bahnhof Museum, Berlin, sharing a book table with out-of-Berlin photographer/daughter Alice Connew (‘43’, 2017), Gloria Books. Then during Paris Photo 2018 with the inimitable Andrea Copetti, Tipi Bookshop, Brussels, aboard Sebastian Hau’s pumping Polycopies on the Seine.

Then two launches back in New Zealand after mid-December 2018 at Lela Jacob’s The Keep, Auckland and at Angela Gordon’s The Service Depot, Wellington. That’s it ... perhaps!
