I’m neither here nor there (Postcard) is a work by Ruth Proctor from 2016. The postcard was sent by the artist from England to Norma Mangione gallery in Turin where she was about to inaugurate the exhibition As if nothing had happened same year. Presented for the first time in the context of this exhibition, the work is part of a series of works on the doubling of one’s presence through indexes and imprints. In works like this, Proctor creates spaces of suspension by playing on the gap between presence and absence through images and words that suggest multiple temporalities.
I am neither here not there (postcard), is part of an ongoing series of the same postcard, all hand written and sent at different times, 10,5 x 14 cm
