KVT – Shades of Blue
A tongue in cheek investigation of a shade of blue @ L’Espace
There’s a monster vivid blue thing that has oozed through a ceiling portal at L’Espace. Perhaps it’s as though a giant has had a defecation after gorging on food and drink at a blue themed birthday party
Luckily the giant has a diet high in fibre is well hydrated so the stool is well formed though – the giant may have eaten a bit too much that didn’t agree with a normal alimentary canal journey and the digestive process may have taken less than the normal three days. Hence that bright cerulean hue.
After surging and flowing and slowly oozing, the stool has solidified and is so shiny that you may think that the ancient Japanese art of dorodango has begun to be practiced with it or that the process of fossilization has been successful
Undigested, flower like solids stick to the non-malodorous object
Nooks and crannies and cave like cubby houses abound and invite spectators to get up close and
personal
And close inspection reveals poetic texts, apparently in several languages inscribed upon petals
One partially translated petal reads:
I abound around all day
little puzzles
unknown
cups of…
steel bars
vehicles
people
I’m determined to get to the bottom of this amazing evacuation and my next, far less fanciful, opinion piece may get to the nitty gritty
