Björk

Stéphane Sédnaoui's 1994 portrait of Björk is reproduced from MoMA's extraordinary, slipcased, M/M-designed exhibition catalogue/artist's book, published on the occasion of the museum's highly anticipated Björk exhibition, which opens this week. In one of five enclosed booklets, Björk's correspondence with Timothy Morton, known for his writing on object oriented philosophy and ecology, is published as a back-and-forth stream. He writes, "we’re carving out new hope spaces. sadness, longing, hope, susceptibility, laughter. good ecological recipes. then how about this: between music and words you are allowing the unspeakable to manifest
i like this word unspeakable
it feels ego-puncturing yet beautiful yet weird yet fascinating yet spooky yet physical nonhuman yet human. like bataille’s idea of spirituality
when one feels prana it is like that. the rushing quality and the tendrils climbing up quality and the hairs on one’s body waving like coral quality."
