The Classicist

This is the main tumblog of Silvie Kilgallon. I'm a conceptual artist and my work is largely influenced by my academic interests in classics, ancient history, translation, and philosophy of language. This blog details conceptual, casual and personal projects on which I am currently working. To see the Stitched Iliad project, please check out the Stitched Iliad blog below.

The Top Poem Is 'The Divine Image' From William Blake's Songs Of Innocence. The Lower Poem Is 'The Human

The top poem is 'The Divine Image' from William Blake's Songs of Innocence. The lower poem is 'The Human Abstract' from Songs of Experience. Half way through finishing the lower piece I realised I should have done it upside down rather than just right aligned. So that at any one time only one of the poems would have been the correct way up to read. Live and learn.

I Feel Unproductive Because I've Not Managed To Finish Anything, But Here's What I've Been Working On.

I feel unproductive because I've not managed to finish anything, but here's what I've been working on. This stitch takes so much time. The above represents about an hour and a half's work, and I'm maybe just over a quarter done on this code.
