Anna Cecilia Russo discusses the meaning of words with Peter Marigold, September 2014

Anna Cecilia Russo, Ho un Libro in Testa, September 28, 2014

For the online literary platform 'Ho un Libro in Testa', Anna Cecilia Russo discusses the relationship between words and objects with Peter Marigold in advance of his Wooden Tables exhibition at Gallery Libby Sellers.

 

The title, 'Wooden Tables', is a play on the adjectival interpretation of the word 'Wooden' - meaning to be static or undynamic. These tables, which are an amalgam of many, many movements and moments are anything but undynamic. As she writes: Peter Marigold "never gets tired of reading and trying to understand how words guard the history of the world and unveil, complement and are grounded in everything surrounding us." As Peter Marigold expresses: "I like the fact that words are like seeds, they look like compact, complete things, but they carry history as data within themselves."
