The site at Orford
Ness, in particular the pagodas, is other worldly and Robert and
Stanley respond well to its power.
Robert Macfarlane’s
words have a mystical power – the dialogue has the rhythm of
liturgy and it all speaks of the power of place.
Stanley Donwood’s
images at in two sets, views of different locations at Orford Ness
and pebbles with holes. In both cases they are made up of cross
hatching which has a great texture to it. It is the images of the
pebbles, I say pebbles but there is no scale they could be boulders,
were somehow the most powerful.
This is a gem of a
book – I think you need a copy!
