Site-Specificity/Spatial Practice
The distinguishing characteristic of today's site-oriented art is the way in which both the art work's relationship to the actuality of a location (as site) and the social conditions of the institutional frame (as site) are subordinated to a discursively determined site that is delineated as a field of knowledge, intellectual exchange or cultural debate
Miwon Kwon 1997
Whilst temporary exhibitions can expand the scope of medium-specific discourse, they can also impose alternative, but equally restrictive frames
Participation, creating a bridge between socially engaged practice and the permanent collection
Expressing itself expressing
Creating a conceptual and linguistic dexterity between absolutes, certainties, definitions
Dissolving the intellectual relevance, with its symbiotic relationship with utility to create 'vessels' beyond art and artifact
The strategy of making artworks as response
The Ceramic Object, by means of preservation and display becomes a vehicle/vessel for a social and historical narrative/entanglement/engagement
Making vessels, beyond the examining and intellectually impoverished questions
A vessel is identified as such by its physical disposition, giving shape to the contents and clarifying what is inside and what is outside
Few boundaries are impenetrable
They are rather, semi-permeable membranes providing housing while allowing selective commerce
Like the vessel, the house shapes and nurtures the life contained inside
The Factory I build in the Tate is a place to discuss the transactions and transformations of Labour that Create Knowledge and Community
In the Factory we will examine skills and how we form Exchanges at Work , with ourselves and with others
