About this Book
We sometimes think of organizations as entities in themselves, but in practical terms our experience of them comes down to the people we encounter under the umbrella of these collectives. I met John Dorsey at and through the Osage Arts Community and he is one of the people who made my experience of the organization so valuable, even magical. When OAC proposed a book project containing images of my exhibition Unravelling I thought Sure, if John will be in it. John and I are pretty hard workers, but the rest is up to the individuals holding this book; you create the gestalt. -Aaron Fine - 2022
A statement on the poems-
Like Bob Rafelson’s classic film Five Easy Pieces and the best poems of Richard Hugo, to observe Aaron Fine’s artwork in this collection requires an examination of the things we don’t say, rather than what we do. It requires a certain level of comfort with silence, if not always with our place in it. A comfort and an ability to subtract words in a way that leaves us with little more than bone. This is how I approached Aaron’s work when I sat with it in the gallery to write these poems. This collaboration is a true honor and I feel like the work I’ve created here fits with the intentions, both creative and emotional, at the core of the original project.
