Elin Lennox: Lubricants 3 + 4

0 comments


With enough lubricant, we could all slip by

But for now, let's stick together

I use strange, small, translucent toys,
eggs, oils, pigments, lights, cameras, and computers
to build organic structures. These concoctions,
like George's marvelous medicine, escape their ingredients'
original uses, by framing a new context for them,
something strong and whizz-bang unexpected.
