Kay Lawrence : Land, Self, Loss, Diana Wood Conroy Oct 2011

Kay Lawrence : Land, Self, Loss, Diana Wood Conroy

Diana Wood Conroy

A Gorgon in the mid-threads of a shawl, fringed with serpents is the description of a baby's shawl, the key motif of the story of the mythical Greek Kreusa. Raped by Apollo, the young princess hid their baby Ion in a cave at birth, wrapped in a covering woven with a Gorgon head she had made herself. His later recognition as a grown man, her son, by a distraught Kreusa depended on the identification of these figured cloths that she had woven as a girl.

Breathing Space, Liz Jeneid, Diana Wood Conroy, Stephen Ingham Oct 2011

Breathing Space, Liz Jeneid, Diana Wood Conroy, Stephen Ingham

Diana Wood Conroy

‘Breathing space’ is about marking time through breath. When breath stops, time stops for each individual chronology. Re-iteration, repeating with variation again and again, in and out, is the rhythm of craft, of skill in drawing and making. Reiteration mirrors the arduous patterns of ancient textiles, ceramics, or inscriptions, patterns derived from images of feathers, scales, or leaves.
