Materials
mixed media
A story just short enough to be read in the gallery but is intended to be carried home by the visitor.
Description
Hilary Masters, a writer by profession, has provided a short story in which the sense of particular place (the site-specific) is brought together with more abstract places or sites, such as memory or the ‘region of regret.’ It is just short enough to be read in the gallery but is intended to be carried home by the visitor.
About the Artist
Hilary Masters was a writer by trade and wrote several books that worked around his main theme of abandonment. He taught for the Department of Literature at Carnegie Mellon University.
