In GRISAILLE (which is a painterly and stained glass term referring to the use of ‘gris’: gray) we encounter five figures – all women – or as Bowes calls them ‘presenters’ who seem to overlap and know one another. They sleep, read, write and contemplate their own consciousness and rehearse their mind grammar, and contemplate paintings, gender, a Robert Duncan poem that relates to a mother as a falconress. They exist in a mysterious landscape of texture, unfathomable shapes, and extraordinary color. The tones of painters Bonnard, de Kooning, Picasso, as well as Renaissance art, have inspired the color and shape of GRISAILLE. — Anne Waldman
