Silverberg, Robbin Ami: Clutter of Love is a Dream Carved on the Head of a Pin
The text of Clutter of Love... is a prose text of the tokens of love I've accrued. The list was printed on colored leaves of paper and then cut so the strips hang down from the book like a mane of hair, as this book was designed to hang on a wall. Some of these pages are also torn or spun into thread-like strands.
One can only 'read' (turn) the empty filigree-cut white pages. The resulting re-focus transfers our attention to the spaces between the pages, to the cut strands and to imagine a non-textual choreography to reading.
