    Sometimes it is difficult to distinguish losses from gains. The world we live in constantly changes and so how to make sense of it all? What is the relationship between mind and body when the mind’s world is built from the body’s sensations? What will we be when we return from war, from love? Who will we be in the post-human machine world? How will genetic manipulation change us and our representation of ourselves? The Told World contemplates some themes of ‘The Pastoral’ in a contemporary world and explores the stories that can be told from that chiaroscuro.

Works about this Work

The Poetry Book as Art Object Kerry Kilner , Angela Gardner , 2012 single work criticism
— Appears in: Australian Poetry Journal , vol. 2 no. 2 2012; (p. 99-113)
This article explores the rich interplay between visual art and the literary arts as represented in artist’s books and fine press publications, describing and discussing some exemplary works and collaborations created by practitioners engaged with the idea that poetry and the visual arts form a natural marriage within the structure of a ‘book’. The books in this context are possessed of multiple layers of meaning, referents, literary and visual allusions and are a part of a tradition where these two art forms create material objects to be experienced spatially rather than as a line to follow.
