Point D'Ironie #36: Tacita Dean




“ For a long time now, I have been going to the flea market and buying postcards. I have started several mini-collections of subjects that attract me, because as any junk junkie knows, once you have found that second version of something you have
already started your collection. So at a certain point, I began finding deformed trees; trees that were grown into personalities through age or freakery and had become subjects for those anonymous jobbing photographers of the last century. And then, it became about the pleasure of picking up a paintbrush again after a long abstinence.”
