“
These are woodcuts from Wind Songs, a series of 55 images exploring
wind and change. All suggest stories: a boy’s foot becomes a wing,
a man’s spine turns into a tree. Ahab, Icarus, Baba Yaga, etc., ghosts of
adventurers whisper through the pictures. Although not about the
persecution of academics, my image of the head within the head spoke
to me of being unable to speak out.
