​23 SANDY GALLERY • 623 NE 23RD AVE • PORTLAND, OREGON. USA
BUILT: Book art as a context to explore architecture, design, the built world, and the built book. 10-year anniversary of the 23 Sandy Gallery.
 
On View in the Gallery: April 7 – May 27, 2017
 
This international juried exhibition of book and paper art aims to examine the relationship between contemporary book art practices and architecture, engineering, landscape and construction as form, function and structure. Reimagining ways as designers, of either books or buildings can inhabit and shape the world around us.
 
‘Domestic notes’ by Eileen White has been selected for ‘BUILT’ and is an exploration of language found in a 1940's architects journal. The visual and textual language of the journal reflects the post war era dominated by masculinity concerned with concrete and modernist building. The book is layered with salvaged fragments of found drawings and papers including excerpts from journals that contain the voices of a number of other female voices, referencing a domesticity normally hidden from view. This resonates with my practice, which currently examines found kitchen materials to make work. The book is both a visual and spatial exploration of interior and exterior surfaces that begin to perforate each other.

Current Exhibition: PERCEPTIONS
Exhibition dates: 18 March - 29 April 2017
Opening times: Mon-Sat 10am-6pm

'McCalls Multi-Blue' has been selected for 'Perceptions; exhibition.  It is an interdisciplinary collaboration between a spatial interior designer Belinda Mitchell and a visual artist, Eileen White
 
The form of the book is being used to explore representations of interiority and how this language might be used to inform alternative methods to making buildings.
 
This work uses a timber floor joist from a C16th manor house in Portsmouth, UK, as a synecdoche to discuss the affective qualities of the manor. The book investigates the immaterial and material qualities of the joist through drawn and written representations.
Drawings of the timber are layered into the cover as a way of 'touching' its past histories and ongoing life as it decays.
