Real-Time Boatbuilding
Real-Time Boatbuilding - Book
SER001
Real-time Boatbuilding is a beautiful photographic book put out by Salt Spring residents Bianca and Gordon Barnes, chronicling 20 years of a project that Gordon began in 1967 - a project that still has some steps to go before the boat is finished. The idea of a journey that remains incomplete after decades may appear to signal a poignant lack of closure. But in fact, the project itself, the book and a future film on the topic by Bianca are all artifacts of a craftsmanship almost unheard of in this age of instant gratification. The related projects contain the high artistic value of the work itself, as well as an important lesson on the...
