Still Point’s zine launch is October 9, from 6 to 8 pm—we hope to see you there! 💖 The exhibition is bookended by poetry: inspired by and opening with T. S. Eliot’s Burnt Norton, it closes with Ramya Ramana’s 1945 then 1971 then 1993 then 1995 then 2018. Both texts are included in the accompanying zine, placing past and present in dialogue—echoing the exhibition’s very concept. At the launch, Ramya will read her poem at 7 pm. ✨🎙️✨ . . .
