Notes

  • Author's note: 

    Boyd’s ‘Untitled (ZVDG) 2014’ (AGNSW) is based on an engraving of an
    1898 Portuguese painting showing Vasco Da Gama’s meeting with the
    Zamorin of Calicut, painted in the artist’s signature style of employing
    tonal graduations and dots to give a sense of shifting light. Boyd refers
    to these dots as ‘lenses.’

    'Dostoevsky writes, ‘but how could you live and have no story to tell?’ (White Nights, 1848). In the post-pandemic, economically-challenged arts community, it is heart-warming to discover that the hardships we are collectively facing have not dampened our combined passion, and capacity, for literary output.'
