Entrapment Stills from a slideshow (32 images) Shafts of sunlight move over a profusion of webs illuminating fragments, an expression of sensual experience in a structure built to trap. A place impenetrable to arachnophobes. Tattoo The light is like a spider. It crawls over the water. It crawls over the edges of the snow. It crawls under your eyelids And spreads its webs there-- Its two webs. The webs of your eyes Are fastened To the flesh and bones of you As to rafters or grass. There are filaments of your eyes On the surface of the water And in the edges of the snow. Wallace Stevens From 'Harmonium' 1916 Entrapment was originally shown in the exhibition Fobos at the City Gallery annex, Opole, Poland 2011. Subsequently at 'Collaborators 3' ROOM, London, 2012
