THE DRAWING OF GHOSTS by Eric Prendergast Audio version read by Buzz Kemper Music on audio version composed and performed by Jane Reynolds and Joan Wildman There are ways to approach the drawing of ghosts. You can begin with a multidimensional sketch of the paths of hands through air in a gesture’s search for the means to body. Flesh comes in outlines tanned pale by fluorescence Don’t let the lines bounding the space of a specter tremble. There is no room for error. Shading may pose a dilemma, as shadows cast poorly when matter is pressed to the wall. Tracing over the pencil lines in pen lends a certain finality to your work. Erase where the lead went astray. As with all human forms, a talent is needed to get this figure breathing on paper. Thus the art is left most often to those with a lively touch. The poem and music, in their audio form, was mixed by Buzz Kemper for the art installation “The Drawing of Ghosts/Horror Vacui” by Corinne Heath |
