Edges Everywhere is about those spaces between. Edges that don’t line up. Edges at that liminal place where the water hits the sand, the stone. Awash. Stay deep. And tides go out and become shallow. Moving boundaries gradually widening over the years, defined by water weathering, defenses decaying over time. Changeable, changing daily.
Edges Everywhere has notes on Cecilia Vicuna’s stick-made sand markings that surround my textile tidelines. The sewn cloth catches tidal back and forth moments and the in/between. Sewn spells appliqued, Passing through the spaces that are neither here nor there.
To celebrate these edges like eco-art/activists Isa Freumeux and Jay Jordan, who retook the Land (the ZAD in France):
“It’s in those slithers of space that a multitude of different species co-exist, and the engine of evolution moves fastest. (We are Nature Defending Itself, Freumeux/Jordan).
I’m scribblings in the margins
Stick in hand
Magicking markings
Vicuna’s word wanderings
Into the wet
Sands
Waiting for the tide
To wash her waters over
Spell-binding
seas Ebb
then flow away.
