Über das Buch
An installation by Jody Alexander at Cabrillo Art Gallery in 2012. "Preparing for Evanescence" addresses the relative ephemeral nature of humans compared to the belongings that we accumulate, and how we cope with our mortal awareness. The treatment of the objects in this installation exhibits a concern for their well-being, and the caretaker’s need to create and protect in the face of powerlessness and dematerialization. Each possession has been attentively prepared and placed for safekeeping between the folds of fabric, stitches of thread, in the sediment of a household. Photographs of the exhibition by r.r. jones.
