6 sheets with watermark, handmade paper in Hanji (Korean) fibre,
Appropriations of myth, re-interpretations, re-visions.
Looking back with new eyes, penetrating an ancient text to take it in a new critical direction.
There are two islands at least, says Atwood in 1974 in Circe/Mud, versus/Anti-Heroic Odyssey. An exhortation to break free from pre-constituted narratives, to imagine another island, another Eea, where feminine and masculine humanity can be directed towards new landscapes, new roles and new sharing.
Six sheets of handmade paper carry the words of the twenty-fourth part of the poem in watermarks.
The title 'Two Islands' in Esperanto refers to the etymology of the word meaning 'to hope'.
