Card Trick

The drawings shown on the last four blogs were done independently of one another over a period of five or so years in the early 1990s: each drawing a memory of the last. Last year I moved to Brighton where, under the wallpaper, I found the face of a woman. She’s one of those beautiful ‘tricks of the plaster’: looks like she’s from 1970s. She remains just as she was found: untouched. I’m going to photograph her – frame her - and hang her on the wall in the exact spot where she already is. But first I’ve got to pluck up the courage to paper over her. She’ll be on top of herself (a head of herself?).  In the meantime I’ll keep her entertained with my card trick. The same card trick over and over again.
