Palimpsest Stone 2015 stone, antique paper, dictionary fragments, collage, ink, graphite, words from Conrad Aiken's House of Cards poem, cardboard case |
"The pages of our lives are blurred palimpsest:New lines are wreathed on old lines half-erased,And those on older still; and so forever.The old shines through the new, and colors it.What's new? What's old? All things have double meanings,- All things return."
Conrad Aiken, The House of Dust, III. Palimpsest: A Deceitful Portrait.
