I just received and posted off the journal, and took some snaps of how it's progressing so far... it still has a while to go before it's filled, so I have a feeling we'll still be passing it around come 2008...

The Journal's Journey
I Recall


Now that he had started her remembering, recollections – like flotsam on a river in sudden spate – came dancing, gliding, bobbing and bumping across her reluctant mind.
Fanny by Gaslight, Michael Sadleir 1940
Sharyn has been questioning memory and recollection for several years, since a statement from a family member led to emotional and physical estrangement.
“Remembering seems to be a process of selection and using that selection to move forward, positively or negatively. What I remember, subconsciously or not, reflects my personality and shapes my life. Or maybe my personality dictates what I choose to
remember.”
In this exhibition I Recall, she explores her childhood memories and recent recollections and has created Art Objects recalling A Dream, A Face and A Fragmented Memory Collection.
The Space Between Words
In February of this year, several eO members partook in an event run by Browns Cows Art Projects in Gosford CBD, entitled the space between words. A local video documentary team produced a DVD of the event, which incorporated LED light text and performance pieces from a few different artists. Below are some screencaptures taken from the DVD of artists during their performances...
