Editor: This etching by John Walker, simply titled "[no title]", feels like a glimpse into a dream, doesn’t it? All swirling shapes and half-formed figures. What strikes you most about it? Curator: Ah, dreams! Yes, it's like a half-remembered tale, isn't it? I’m drawn to the bold contrasts, the way Walker builds form from near abstraction. It’s almost like he’s wrestling with the image, trying to pull something tangible from the ether. Does it remind you of anyone? Editor: A little bit, I guess. It feels turbulent. I do appreciate you putting it that way, though. Curator: Exactly. It is a conversation, an unfinished story, leaving us room to fill in the blanks.
