WORLD BOOK NIGHT

for web WBN ruth broadway 2018.jpg

WBN United Artists will be making their annual video and artist’s book as part of World Book Night 2018.

Artists are invited to contribute their work, responding to ‘Watching God’ in the collection of short stories Three Moments in an Explosion by China Miéville.  The work will be included in a collaborative artist’s book to be launched on 23rd April 2018.

This is my contribution to the book:

‘I am not much of a reader’

 ‘To the disappointment of my mother and my friend Gam, both intellectuals, I am not much of a reader......what I liked most was to climb the bleached trees at the edge of the forest and take birds' eggs and empty them carefully and paint the shells.’
