DIY

fust   find black mould growing on wall behind

bookcase you built for me father   man’s man

to shelf my queer stories   back then   I was
sissy who couldn’t DIY   but now

you’re dead   I box hardbacks   shoulder the weight
scrub scum   repaint black pink   man of the house

The fourth relic is by Caroline Wright and has been left in St Andrews Street South - even the most modern of environments have their flakes and layers of history. 

Caroline Wright is an artist and researcher whose practice is site specific and realised in various media.  She has made work for cities and rural locations, on beaches and in buildings of spiritual significance, for festivals and for galleries. Her current Doctoral research investigates if the practices of drawing, swimming and writing address the lived experiences of rapid coastal erosion and is based in her home county of Suffolk, England. Wright has exhibited nationally and internationally including commissions for Cambridge University, London 2012, PSi 19 San Francisco USA, Edinburgh Festival, the Law Council and international BAR Associations, Royal Ulster Academy, Southwark Park Gallery and Wysing Arts Centre. Wright is Programme Leader for Fine Art at the Open College of the Arts and a founder member of the Misreading Group. www.carolinewrightart.com Twitter: @carolinejwright Instagram: carolinejwright1

    I am an artist and the curator for grove and groving. This blog is groving online, and records the artworks placed on the streets of Bury St Edmunds along with  responses to the work by commissioned writers.
