Exhibition Review - Mark Wallinger:'ID' Hauser & Wirth, London till 7th May 2016.
Wallinger places his hands to tend to the spectre of solipsism. - Drenched Co.
Comment: "At Wallinger's ID, the artist places himself in his works, evolving his 'I' to another level. Wallinger is in contemplation of self and wills us to participate. And perhaps in the midst of this contemplation, there is this idea of the human hand and its complicity in the evolution of our brains and culture and our contemporary digitally determined identities e.g. 'I touch, therefore I leave traces', leaving my mark wherever I go. (See Frank Wilson's The Hand). Fabulous." - FaSa

Exhibition Review - Joanna Kirk, Blain|Southern London till Oct 3rd 2015.
Kirk smudges out the Mitwelt
as it fades back
just beyond my view,
and cloaks the landscape
in a colorless candor
in a monochrome rainbow
in cobalt blue. - Drenched Co
Comment: "The more one absorbs these paintings the more one looses one's self to them, in them. The crinkly dry details in them are breathtaking. " - Raj

Exhibition Review - FABIENNE HESS:'Hits and Misses (from the archive)' Talbot Rice Gallery, Edinburgh till 3 Oct 2015 - Part of the Edinburgh Art Festival Programme 2015
Image ideal for contemplation,
ejected from its cherished vaults.
Dislocated, transferred, displaced.
Humbled to a rushed blot,
Into a draped abstraction,
fit for distraction. - Drenched Co
Comment: "The project seemed to have involved the arduous process of selecting, digitising, emailing, arranging and printing 20000+ images. And beige is obviously the dominant color of archives." - FaSa

'Wreckage In May' is a film by artist Declan Clarke.

I saw a Benjaminian thesis on history.
I saw a film by Declan Clarke embroiled
