- Summary
- "End Matter" is a commission by Artangel and BBC Radio 4. In the artist's words: "I will compose a text solely comprised of end matter such as an epilogue, a postscript, an afterword, some addenda, or appendices etc. The shadowy quality of the work's documentary vestiges will act as a mememto to the missing body of the work." Portland has been shaped and hollowed out over centuries by convicts and quarrymen to provide stone for some of London's best-known buildings. Katrina Palmer has undertaken her own excavations into this elemental island, marked by unsettling absences, deviant goings-on and a wirter who has gone missing. The book accounts for the loss of Portland's stone.
