In Pursuit of Truth Beyond Fact : The Ethical Wagers of Amar Kanwar's The Torn First Pages by Erika Balsom.
Au-delà des faits, en quête de vérité : le défi éthique de The Torn First Pages d'Amar Kanwar par Erika Balsom.
Imagine nineteen sheets of paper floating forever in the wind. Imagine the simultaneous viewing of multiple time. Of obvious time, hyper time, orphaned time. Time that unexpectedly shoots off from beneath your feet, and races away. Time parallel and co-existing in two geographical memories. One sinking roots, the other a smoke-wisp attached to and forever trailing a body. Imagine time that is filled with as many silences as with words. Imagine the slow gathering together of time. Moment by moment. Evidence by evidence. Imagine the formal presentation of poetry as evidence in a future war crimes tribunal.
