"The piece,
The Room, which I covered from 1988's The White Arcades,
has had a haunted-like presence since I abandoned it a dozen
years ago. I knew that I had stepped away from it early, but
the greater need then was to release the record I'd been periodically
working on and off in Edinburgh for the previous six months.
"It was untitled - unusual for me - until I saw Tony Bevans's
show at the ICA in London which included his portrait of citric
angst: The Room. I had my title - a chance discovery that switches
everything into place. Another chance discovery, ten years later,
was accidentally skirting the tiny Piazza San Pancrazio in Florence
and glancing over to the medieval facade of the Museo Marino
Marini. The museum was empty - the space was central: stairs
to nowhere, dead-end alcoves, clerestory windows that allowed
no light... The Room opened, in dark.
"There are more rooms than pieces. Titles have come and
gone, pieces have had a short life, others have appeared from
nowhere and still others were worked and re-worked till they
finally broke through or were discarded.
"I miss the ones that have disappeared." |
