Liliane Lijn
A for Elm   2001

31 x 11.5 x 11.5 cm

Letraset and vinyl transfers, gouache on turned mahogony cone, electric motor.

Text derived from The White Goddess, Robert Graves, Faber.

In these recent text works I want words to be interchangeable with colour.

In A for Elm I use 5 colours with the 5 ancient Godelic tree names which are interchangeable with the 5 names of the goddess, and the 5 transitions in her life.
