'Already Reads'

2004 - present
Drawn from nature, newspaper is then drawn back into nature. Newspaper tree trunks and prosthetic branches, sharing the stories they’ve been charged to keep. Stories both from the trees they come from and from the human world of truth, lies, propaganda and opinion branded onto the newspaper; history – the writing on the wall.
Reshaping the stories into new narratives in 2 dimensions, the wall mounted newspaper works seek to reference the trees before the newspaper, the stories of the newspaper and new words suggested by the worked newspaper. Each 2 dimensional piece comes with its own story . Sometimes in these stories it’s not easy to see the wood for the trees.
