Description
Our latest exhibition, Now I Know What Nothing Is, was inspired by a photograph in Patti Smith’s A Book Of Days. In this image, Smith sits in a chair, chin in the heel of her hand. She is lost in thought, a distinct heaviness to her gaze. The caption reads: ‘This is just thinking of nothing. I remember my mother sitting like this. And I would ask, what is it Mommy? And she would say, Oh nothing. And now I know what nothing is.’ The photograph and accompanying reflection resonate powerfully with our collective. As mothers, we too know what nothing is. It is all the things we can't share, speak, articulate, or even find words for.
