註釋
"After a fall, Dutch author Adriaan van Dis broke all kinds of things. Casts and morphine put him back on his feet and behind the writing desk. Morphine in particular turned out to be a nice friend who stuck around for a while. Together they wrote a poetic report of their experiences. Visual artist Berend Strik created the series Stitched body-c-prints, inspired by Adriaan van Dis's poem cycle Morfine. The series of eight works is a collection of "traces" in the intimate and vulnerable human body. Strik: “We usually experience our body as something that we carry with us. I want to show the body as an object to contemplate, to reflect on. A line of threads 'wanders' over and along the photographed body. Sometimes it looks like a mysterious landscape, sometimes a strange opera decor with whimsical - or playful - shapes, shadows, lines and colours that evoke all kinds of associations. Morphine soothes, numbs and has a hallucinatory effect. But in this cycle Van Dis actually exposes reality and shows what lies behind and underneath the scars. His poetry makes them bearable and imaginative. Strik’s stitching has the same effect: they soften the scars so that you can look at them. The collaboration between Van Dis and Strik was initiated by 99publishers and resulted in the Morfine bundle, which appears as the sixth volume in the 99 Editions series, in a limited edition of 99 copies. The bundle comes with a signed and numbered piezography, with manually applied stitching, also in an edition of 99..." -- From the Gallery description.
