Time That Something Something
Text fragments from the poem by Jackson MacLow
Calligraphy, drawing, and Binding  by Thomas Ingmire
San Francisco, 2014
Unique book
9 x 12"  16 bound mylar  pages

The work of Jackson Mac Low served as inspiration for this book. The marks/drawing and lettering have been done in response to some of his various voice and instrumental compositions. The readable texts in the work are fragments from the Stein poems that he wrote between 1998 and 2003. In these poems he used his "deterministic" procedure for their development. My work in this book, made up of mylar pages, attempts to capture MacLow's experimentation and crossing of boundaries. The expressive calligraphic lettering and drawings gain a special richness because the show-through, and shimmering sheen of the mylar.

    I I like the words of the poet, Juan Ramon Jimenez, "if they give you lined paper, turn it sideways." For calligraphy to become relevant in the modern world, it seems to me that it must embrace the ideas behind these words. The works in this section of the website will represent my endeavors to explore new boundaries.
