STIMULATING TENSIONS.

Mediating/Architecting the experience of LANDSCAPE.
The building as nothing more than an exposition of itself.

The
House-sheds : Camping
There's
more truth about a camp than a house. Planning laws need not worry
the improvising builder because temporary structures are more
beautiful anyway, and you don't need permission for them. There's
more truth about a camp because that is the position we are in. The
house represents what we ourselves would like to be on earth:
permanent, rooted, here for eternity. But a camp represents the true
reality of things: we're just passing through.

assemblages and the significance of solitude.
The
immensity/intimacy and its immediacy to the imagination. Immensity is
within ourselves. Gaston Bachelard
The
site a Raveningham offers the spatial practice of a social event and
the opportunity to playfully engage with architectural forms, fine
art surfaces and textures.
The
sensing space, a sculptural assemblage created at Raveningham is an
inquiry into 'making' and 'reflexivity' amongst a social landscape.

CONTEXT
AND CONSIDERATIONS :
ART
MUSEUM CULTURE
THE
CONTEXT FOR CONTEMPORARY ART IS THAT WE MAKE, EXHIBIT AND VIEW.
MUSEUM
DIRECTOR, CURATOR, COLLECTOR, ARTIST
None
of that means anything anymore. Artists are now more DIVIDUALISTIC.
They discover themselves not by securing a role within the historic
narrative of a chosen medium. But by INTERGRATING into a more DIFFUSE
ECOLOGY that involves not only making art, but also putting on shows,
publishing, organizing events, teaching, networking.
THE
STUDIO is no longer a retreat, but it now INTEGRATES, IT IS ALL
EXTERIOR. THE NETWORK places the artist as a ’like' ITEM within an
INTEGRATIVE
INVENTORY
or DATABASE.
