Empty Room


This photograph was taken by the highly symbolic and artsy-farty pretentious but oh-so-morally-tragico-jubilant self-flagellating genius and modern master of post-fururist Surrealism an' 'ighly-clevah'-an' all that photographer, the friend with whom I am investing (as a minor partner) in a two-house property in the country (more here). It needs renovating and she borrowed my small digital camera today before going there to see how the work was going and plant I-don't-no-what kind of tree with her mother. Or something.

What you see here is a photo she took of the inside of her place, stripped down to basics. Waiting for the renovations to begin.

If Andy Warhol or someone had taken this photo they'd have been paid a fortune for it.

Worthless and wonderful. Just as good photos should be.

  2. "Never worthless!"
    The person who took the photo would like to know how much you'd be willing to pay for it.

    "Eat your heart out Andy."
    I just phoned him in his grave. He says he's "turning in it."

    "Lovely."
    Yeah, it's an original and beautifully balanced photo with an almost ethereal feel about it and I'm glad you like it.

    "Ruth."
    Fripouille.

    Merry Christmas to you and yours!
