Work I'm looking at










Tannaz Farsi
Hands Remain Still
2009
36’x 4’ vinyl, fluorescent lights, paint
Tacoma Contemporary with Elissa Cox, & Petra Kralickova


This collaborative project was created from three original texts from the artists.
Reconfigured, the words create a temporal play and can be read both in horizontal
and vertical columns as dictated by the window breaks. The text creates a
syncopation that alludes to concrete location while juxtaposing temporary expressions
of longing and placelessness.
