Symbiotic Rootscapes
Merlin Sheldrake
‘Symbiosis – the intimate association formed between different species – is a fundamental feature of life and enables new biological possibilities. Mycorrhizal fungi are some of the more striking examples.’
Ornithographies
Xavi Bou & Tim Dee
‘No bird could ever be seen by our naked eye as Bou shows it, but every flying bird actually moves in that way.’
People From My Neighbourhood: Behind the Scenes
Clare Skeats
Clare Skeats on the cover design for Hiromi Kawakami’s latest book of stories, translated by Ted Goossen.
Arbos
Teju Cole
‘I made many pictures of such trees, and each time, some analogy to art would impress itself on me, the more so because of the universally locked museum doors.’
Still Life
Leanne Shapton
‘Because that’s what I’m doing a lot of; looking around the interiors I occupy, the corners of my occupied apartment.’
Tête-à-Tête
Diana Matar
‘The features and expressions were uncannily contemporary. Some seemed to be mirror images of the people I had seen at the protest in Piazza del Gesù.’
Labirinto
Wiktoria Wojciechowska & Lisa Halliday
‘But only a city without people is immune. Only a city in which nothing circulates, nothing changes hands, nothing flourishes.’
Lisa Halliday introduces the photography of Wiktoria Wojciechowska.
True Story
Toyin Ojih Odutola & Yaa Gyasi
‘What if our art had not been stolen, our people not enslaved? What if we imagined a good story, a righteous and just story, and then we worked to make it true?’
Forest as Metaphor
John Vink
‘Trees, mostly the older and weaker ones, were toppled by the wind, dragging neighbouring trees down, just like someone contaminated by the virus would contaminate another.’
Laxmi
Anita Khemka & Rana Dasgupta
‘Anita’s documentation of Laxmi developed into what has become a lifelong friendship bound by photography.’
Rana Dasgupta introduces the photography of Anita Khemka.
Secondhand
Mónica de la Torre
‘Eerily animated, it’s as if the gloves persist in their attempt to express something that can’t be reduced to words, something untranslatable.’
Crimes of Space
Eyal Weizman & Rana Dasgupta
‘Architecture can be employed as a form of violence and violation.’
