Definite/Indefinite
mixed media assemblage
clockfaces, device of unknown use, old letter.
by Dale Copeland, 2006
300 X 300 X 50 mm
NZ $650

We can feel so sure of things.
THE - the definite article.
And clocks, telling lives/lies to the second.
These clocks have no hands, and there's that mystery,
the circus-coloured device with 48 sliding parts to keep count.
Of something.
Important enough to be made, but now no-one knows what it was for.
Counting the indefinite so very definitely.


Dale's studio can be found on Surf Highway, Taranaki, New Zealand
