Tristan Stevens, Fifthwall
QUESTIONS:
Where shall i start?
Will the sand slip through the crevices grain by grain throughout the exhibition?
What is the word for a being before it comes into being?
Invitation or Display?
POEM/FREE ASSOCIATION:
WHERE IS THE FIFTH WALL?
The earth beneath
or the sky above
What came before
The elsewhereness
Of what’s assembled here
You can have anything
In this world you want,
See, take a handful
Pour it grain by grain
Into the hand below
Anything in this world you want.
As long as you want this world.
What – you want another one?
You don’t buy this?
What’s wrong with you,
Take some time out,
Take another look,
Think again,
Breathe deeply
Everything is taken care of
There’s nothing you need to do
Just sit.
Leaf through those glossies.
Someone will be along shortly
to sign you in.
