of Lost Things and Missing Time.
“The intricacies of how we find ourselves entangled in relationships to countries, nationalities, and people, to locations and to time, and to the ensuing identifications- these aspects continue to be questioned in this work.”
~ Solomon Graves
In Mid 2014, SURPLUS SPACE, of Portland, Oregon, exhibited Draft of a Landscape: IRVING PARK VERTICAL by The Society for the Preservation of Lost Things and Missing Time (TSFPLTMT).
Draft of a Landscape: IRVING PARK VERTICAL asks that visitors suppose that Portland is not a human habitation, but a psychic entity in which nothing that comes into existence passes away, that all previous phases of development, continue to exist parallel to the latest and most current one. IRVING PARK VERTICAL is a speculation upon the landscape, where the forces of memory, science, commerce, and fiction convene as an expansive, highrise complex. It is a leap onward in the inevitable union of forward thinking expansion, sleek modernist ideal, vertical ambition, and futuristic oblivion.
Brochures are available gratis. A small catalog is available for purchase.
