Not That One A

Sometimes, when I used to DJ my ex-wife used to be in the booth with me and she would shout: “Not That One!”-in reference to a record I was about to put on. Hence the object and the title. Memory.

METAPHOR (Cedar,Plywood,Nylon”Zap-straps”+Oil, 53cm x 55cm x 16.5cm, Dirk Marwig 2012)

Metaphor
