Andrew Blanchard
Bluff

About the Item

Bluff depicts a dichotomous, pseudo-outpost structure. On the one hand, this totemic tower appears to be an innocuous stack reminiscent of a child's clubhouse or fort--a dry spot for reverie away from rising water lines, encroaching animal life, or unwanted lurkers. On the other hand, it also serves as a lookout where the fringe of town meets the county or parish line...a makeshift watchpoint that boldly proclaims to cause harm if further footfall is taken. Components from this screen-printed painting were collected post-Katrina, while others I pass in everyday life. Bluff could be fictional, an element that might be encountered in Jesmyn Ward's Salvage the Bones or Michael Farris Smith's Rivers, or, it could be from the here and now, as if happened upon in the woods or backyard of a corner lot. Either way, in higher ground or to deceive intentions, the duality is implicit.
