Circuit Rider
Walking is a collaborative window installation that collages poetry and photographic
images by Anna Daedalus and Maryrose Larkin. This project combines Daedalus’
painterly images of Oregon landscape with the poem Circuit Rider Walking
written by Larkin about the town and people of Brownsville, its history and the
history of 333 North Main St. It is also a continuation of Larkin’s Speaking
Buildings - a literary installation project which creates site-specific poems
for buildings based on the intersection of the building’s windows, history and
language. For Daedalus, the project is part of the ongoing series, Night Tree.
