Scope and Contents
The artist composed the work on an Olympia Splendid 99. In a personal communication to Marvin Sackner in 2013, Mott stated that the his typewritings were inflenced by Margaret, his first wife's (died in 1990) weavings plus reading on knots, quipu, etc and not by the reading of Monk's Pond that he was unaware of until the 1980s. He further mentioned that he employed "various degrees of pressure to give variations and life to the work." Mott mentionsthat this piece was to pay a tribute to one of his favorite painters of Church Interiors, Pieter Jamsz Saenredam.. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
