McVarish, Emily
Found in 3 Collections and/or Records:
[Thick As Walls Line] / Emily McVarish., 1995
This work consists of a metal case that contains a paper scroll with concrete poetry printed in varied fonts and sizes with areas of space around the letters and words. The metal case was appropriated by the artist from a device used by chicken egg farmers to inspect them. The scroll is turned within the case by means of two handles. Several words have fragmented letters perhaps as a stylistic metaphor to the "new typography" of the nineties. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
