children s book titled the adventures of miss minette and master jocko to which is added the marvelous adventures of dame trot and her wonderful cat published in 1850 posted in objects and artifacts tagged antiquarian books book pages found art clara posted on january 4 2012 by aria nadii the photographs in this article are from an installation by artist fumio tachibana the photographer is yasuhide kuge this exhibition was the first time i had consciously experienced the artist his inspiration materials work and working space as inseparable tachibana is someone who has mastered the art of evocation the re purposing and re imagining of fragments woven or arranged into a new whole is a important concept in my own work his subject is clara a fashion institute for western style dressmaking in japan founded and run by motoko and shiro koike in 1923 they also published a fashion magazine called yosai shunju the building was demolished and the magazine banned during world war 2 in 1944 i ll take a wild guess that anything to do with western culture was not at all popular in japan during that time motoko revived the institute as a classroom studio in the 1950s when the studio was dismantled fumio tachibana collected and reorganized the fragments of motoko s work and materials drawings sketches dressmaking patterns postwar japanese handbills wrapping paper silk thread and printing equipment into a large scale installation of new artworks and arrangements in their own space so that the classroom itself was part of the work there is something powerful going on here in that motoko s presence is strongly felt in the photographs source communion w 2001 curator can wong posted in inspirations objects and artifacts visual art tagged art art process found art stitched paper studio telephones and tobacco posted on august 25 2011 by aria nadii who needs a telephone this he took a pinch of tobacco from a pouch is my communication better than any telephone telephone carries your voice around the earth not up to the creator you don t need a telephone to talk to the creator when we want to talk to the creator we burn tobacco and it takes our prayers all the way up to the sky world what telephone can do that louis farmer onondaga nation posted in crazy wisdom in the garden tagged art artist gardens cape cod garden garden structures permaculture foundling swatches posted on march 31 2011 by aria nadii fragments remembrances scraps of cloth or small tokens attached to the handwritten records of foundling children were kept as a means of identification it was hoped that these remembrances would be a means of one day uniting mother and child under more hopeful circumstances occasionally there were happy endings where the child was reclaimed apprenticed or adopted however more often than not the foundling children immortalized in these unusual ledgers died young and were buried in unmarked graves what almost all of them have in common is that this is all that is left of their existence which is perhaps more of a mark than most people leave even those who have happier beginnings or more successful lives there are just bits of cloth a ribbon or a button attached to the faded pages in a record book something so practical and seemingly ordinary which have across time and upon rediscovery become completely fascinating so beautiful and sad haunting foundling 14695 an embroidered sampler left with a boy named william porter admitted on the 6th of december in 1759 and died on the 27th of may in 1760 captain thomas coram opened the foundling hospital in 1741 with a charter awarded to him by king george ii artists william hogworth joshua reynolds and thomas gainsborough along with composer george frideric handel were patrons of the endeavor donating the proceeds from their works the idea was revolutionary and progressive in its time desperate and destitute young mothers who did not have the means to care for their children whether they were unmarried or widowed were given the opportunity to house their children in a safe place with no questions asked and gifted with open invitation to reclaim their children when and if possible many of these mothers were probably children themselves in the worst of circumstances who would otherwise have abandoned their infants on doorsteps or in the street or watched them die of illness or starvation now given some bit of hope represented by a scrap of cloth from a child s garment or their own young mothers left the hospital with a textile ticket and its exact match from the same piece of clothing was attached to a ledger recording the infant s details and description proof that this child was hers there is some kind of magic there foundling 16516 patchwork made from printed and woven fabrics embroidered with a heart and cut in half one half was left with a boy who was admitted in 1767 he was named benjamin twirl by the foundling hospital his mother sara bender reclaimed him on june 10th in 1775 foundling 14922 a bit of threadbare linen flowered all over with playing cards left with a boy in 1759 he was named joseph floyd by the foundling hospital he was apprenticed in 1769 foundling 14953 a boy was admitted on october 3rd of 1759 wearing checkt stuff and was named mentor lesange by the foundling hospital in 1770 he was apprenticed to a farmer named hercules durham foundling 13187 a girl of 14 days wearing yellow satten flowered was admitted june 20th in 1759 and given the name lucy locket she a died a few weeks later on july 2nd foundling 10563 a girl was admitted on the 22nd of november in 1758 with heart cut from red woolen cloth pinned to her cap probably cut from her mother s dress or coat she was named isabel crane and died a few weeks later on december 16th foundling 2275 a boy admitted in september 1756 attached to a flowered silver ribbon with a paper note sewn into it and died the same month apparently someone on the hospital staff folded the paper sheets into small packages of nine folds most of which were never opened and eventually collected into books for this reason they were accidentally preserved and rediscovered
