Winter Music
The first in a new series of T Space Editions, WINTER MUSIC is a collaboration of artist/photographer Susan Quasha and renowned poet Robert Kelly. The 40 photos vibrantly liminal oscillations between colors almost indistinguishable from light and their origins in earth/sky matters are so eerily well printed by the justly famous Avery Group (at Shapco Printing) as to seem original to each page. In poems that powerfully embody the excitement of seeing a world for the first time, Kelly responds as he says to her body of luminous lyrical enactment, free of narrative, almost devoid of dependency on subject, let alone the human subject, and yet which well over with emotion, desire, joy in beholding. Using only the image full-formed in the camera, with no subsequent manipulation, she gives us a precious thing, a chance to see with her seeing, not just what she saw. We become the agent of her investigation into the colors of our attention.
