Voda v řece Ostravici (Water in the Ostravice River)
Select Frame
Description
The river here is not a map. It is a current.
A silver line at the top holds the water’s surface. Below it, the water turns murky brown and then clears to the color of kerosene. The sequins sit like a reflection, not as decoration. The Ostravice is the color of both mud and metal.
From a distance, a dark wall of water.
Up close, plastic sheeting, the grain of canvas, a speck of light.
Into the living room. Against the gray plaster and wood. A spotlight lifts the silver.
An original.
