Words ahead of a live work at Trelex Residency.
Grip a Hold (workign title).
Is a piece with a fantastic sprawl of scrap metal I found on the side of a footbath in a big cage bin. This metal is usually used to bound up materials.
I will be working live with the metal and spoken word in the barn and the garden of the residency. I will make small and intricate sounds, I will then be within and/or carrying the metal around me as I walk.

I can’t grip a hold
This grip is too old
A little sound can ground a soul
A sprawling mark can stay away the dark
Reigning in again
What is that voice inside that hold?
Reigning in again
A little sound
can ground
a soul
