Thoroughout Samuel R. Delany's writing--be it essayistic, speculative, fantastical, pornographic, historical or chaste--an image recurs: fingernails chewed down to nubs, on callused, horny, ruined, big male hands. This is taste in action. A hangnail is a splinter off the edge a fingernail: sore, snagging, and potentially a site for infection. These rearranged slivers from my sketchbooks indicate lines of thought, preferences, and compulsions, cut loose.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJamie Crewe is a beautiful bronze figure with a polished cocotte’s head. They make artworks with video, text, installation, sculpture, drawing, painting and more. These works think about constriction: the way people are formed by their cultures, environments and relationships, and the things that herniate from them as a consequence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIG: @jamiecrewe \/ website: https:\/\/www.jamiecrewe.co.uk\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rabbet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58295301243215,"sku":null,"price":58.32,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0991\/6321\/0063\/files\/IMG_2728.jpg?v=1784848098","url":"https:\/\/rabbetartauction.co.uk\/products\/jamie-crewe-hangnail-no-5","provider":"Rabbet","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
