Me. by .. brooke woolley ..


I am a young artist trained in sculpture and installation, currently working part time out of my studio in South London. I am interested in libraries, archives, collections, antiquities, academia, literature, intellectuals and cultural capital. I have a special fondness for old typography, royalty, uniforms, naval imagery and britishness.

"It seems to me as natural and necessary to keep notes, however brief, of one's reading, as logs of voyages or photographs of one's travels. For memory, in most of us, is a liar with galloping consumption."
- - F. L. Lucas

The man in the midst of objectlessness is nothing but the orderer

A sixth reader, who was standing, examining the shelves with his nose in the air, approaches the table. "The moment that counts most for me is the one that preceeds the reading. At times a title is enough to kindle in me the desire for a book that perhaps does not exist. At times it is the incipit of the book, the first sentences... In other words: if you need little to set the imagination going, I require even less: the promise of reading is enough."
- - ITALO CALVINO, if on a winter's night a traveller
