GROVE breaks down slowly
05/01/08 14:23
GROVE is something and nothing all at
the same time. When you enter the small clearing off the trail with
ten or so small mounds of dirt and paper, you might not see much
happening. It is only when you look closely that you can see the
changes. The paper swells and freezes repeatedly. The dirt and
paper are trampled into the ground. A dog dug a hole in one of the
mounds - luckily not the largest mound which holds the only paper
tree I think of as Bill...This large tree was also the only tree to
crumple and fall at the Fringe show at the Media Bureau.
Bill was like a large oak tree – appearing so invincible until it falls in a passing storm and reveals the weakness at its core. Bill worked so hard to try and stay here with us, denying over and over that the disease had any power over him – until in the end it couldn't be denied any longer.
