- Summary
"Orange is concerned with space-making. Orange contains declarations ("Poets are containers. Containers deserve respect") and language-situations, including the hire of a professional lover to address money issues. Reading Orange might impact the way you experience words such as 'fridge', 'fear', 'toast', and 'handwash'. If Orange had a texture it would be soft. If you believe that feelings smell, Orange might be for you. Sometimes a color can hold a space that is otherwise shadowed/obscured/unknowable."--Publisher's website (viewed 2018 June 12).
- Biography
"Christine Herzer is an artist, poet and teacher. Working across mediums (drawing, text, language-objects, installation, video, workshop), her practice employs accumulation and gestures of 'over-layering', 'covering up', 'erasing', 'interrupting/disrupting' and 'complicating', in order to address and process questions of invisibility + meaning (= love). Her writing has appeared in numerous literary journals and online publications, including Fence, The Offending Adam, The Volta, Blackbox Manifold, RealPoetik, Seymour Magazine, and 3:AM Magazine. She has taught Creative Writing in India at Symbiosis School for Liberal Arts, Pune, and The National Institute of Design in Ahmedabad. Herzer is the 2018 Laureate 'Ecritures' of a writing residency at La Cité des Arts, Paris, where she will be using her ongoing series of ''Written Drawings" as a living archive from which to direct her investigations into such questions as: What is the role of repetition in the creative process? How to show caring/devotion for words, as well as their meanings (emotional centers) and [ab]uses?"--Publisher's website (viewed 2018 June 12).
