Vest Tops, Decisive Gestures, guest publication - Lucie McLaughlin

Description

This pamphlet, published by The Yellow Paper Press, Glasgow, attempts to capture the ambition and confusion of an art writing practice. Instants, anecdotes and interactions emerge through the gaps between wanting to write, writing and being ‘a writer’. It features libraries, caves, ferries, Swiss roll, art bookshops and rustlings of light.
