20220909 a memory

In 1995 when I visited Scotland QEII was in residence at Holyrood Palace. Which meant her presence loomed large over the country and you never quite knew which tourism plans would be disrupted, especially in Edinburgh. No visits to Holyrood (out of the question) an interrupted tour of the castle (w/ brief glimpse of Her in her car, see slide), and leapfrogging Her Majesty on visits to nearby manor houses, castles, and formal gardens.

After the trip, I created a collaged flip book-style artist's book featuring QEII in various outfits in the colours of the visible spectrum (ROYGBIV). Except, I couldn't find a foto of her in green. So at the very center of the book, in a flash (le rayon vert*), I collaged her head onto the body of a Scotsman in green tartan kilt (Jackie Stewart??) looming large over some of Scotland's most popular touristic sites. It's a unique piece, and besides my memories one of my favorite mementos of the trip.

Requiescat in pace Queen Elizabeth II. I'm glad your final rest occurred in a place you clearly loved, and where you felt at peace.

*le rayon vert : a meteorological optical phenomenon that occurs transiently around the moment of sunset or sunrise; the green flash usually lasts for no more than two seconds. Also a novel by Jules Verne; also an impressionable 1986 French film by Eric Rohmer.

What inspired this project? Walking and exploring the small, old and winding streets of our new city, we noticed how very many houses had the address 1️⃣. This project seeks to document the many house number 1️⃣s of Fribourg.
