Tape is included in many of my series… without tape therefore playing a major role. Tape is a supporting role, a significant supporting role, but the main role is played by everything else … let’s call it life.
But I admit: In this series, it may well look as if the supporting role becomes the main role.
I would therefore like to say a little about tape. And here I have to ask myself… I know what it is… but I just haven’t tried to put it into words before.
In 2004, the tape was on me…literally. Tape in the form of a bandage. Then it moved onto the plants and growths that I am connected to, related to, … I sometimes have a hard time distinguishing between them and me. I am their voice … and they are mine.
Tape is tape, but tape is also a bandage, plaster, a brace or a form of adhesive.
Tape can be used to hold things together.
Something that is half can join with something else that is also not whole… and become whole.
Something that is scattered, or something that does not immediately seem to belong together, can come together and become a whole.
Something that cannot stand can be supported so that it stands.
A position that has headwinds or that is alone can gain a support… a position, a belief, a feeling, an attitude, a loneliness.
