Tom O’Sullivan & Joanne Tatham
Live and work in Glasgow

The beholder literally and physically gets lost in the symbolic, a dwarf in the forest of signs. This is the size of things unnameable. They are too big for words, and the question is whether it helps to make the words bigger.
— Lars Bang Larsen, from “HK”

I see you laughing, red lit with eyes like smoke: Everybody’s looking at you, but you’re looking through them, past them: You’re caught somewhere between perception and reality, between image and life.
— Will Bradley, from “The Glamour”
