Proscinemi, Olympia 1979

Editor: So, this is "Proscinemi, Olympia" by Joe Tilson. I’m immediately struck by the earthy tones and the almost archaeological feel. It’s like a fragment of something ancient, a memory perhaps? What do you make of it? Curator: A memory, yes. Faded, perhaps? It feels like a layered narrative, doesn't it? The ancient script, the worn sandals... Tilson often blends classical and contemporary elements. Are the sandals resting or just passing through, do you think? The juxtaposition of permanence and transience is quite moving to me. Editor: That's a great point about the sandals. I hadn't considered that tension. So, it's a story about time then? Curator: Time, place, and perhaps the very human act of leaving one's mark, however fleetingly. It’s a quiet piece, yet so resonant. Editor: I can see that. It's much deeper than I initially thought. Thanks for pointing that out!
