Off the back of my recent group exhibition at the BALTIC, titled Hinterlands, with my contribution being The Country Journal of a Blackwoman ( Northumberland ), I’ve been pussy-footing around the idea, the feeling, the need to extend this archival body further.
I’m beginning, or is it really a beginning? As I’m always in the process of becoming and when can we really mark the beginning of something when we’re already in it?
Anyway, this will become a placeholder. Another placeholder, for my thoughts and ideas and musings, around archives, records and power.
I’ve also got an are-na board going for links and readings around ‘building an archive’ as well. So just trying to catch every fleeting connection as and when they occur.
