Silence: The Graveyard of Certainty. (The shadow of an art piece on a wall), 2024. Jan Creelman (in Chile)
Silence, like a whisper, does not necessarily announce itself out loud. But it lingers and can murmur regret for several, or all of our remaining days. Yet, we know what to do; what needs to be said. Silence is ever fluid; a story never fully told but, one way or another, it never abandons us. It speaks out loud and announces its presence through the shadows of our lives, in a graveyard of certainty. For its effect is quite undeniable.
This piece represents that air and time. It is the shadow of a carved piece, that is absorbed by it’s substrate on a particular day, at a particular time. It can never be duplicated as such, but like silence, it certainly exists and lays in repose. Much like the quiet and permeation of a graveyard.
