Creating physical origins.
Biology of Cognition.
We become observers through recursively generating representations of our interactions, and by interacting with several representations simultaneously we generate relations with the representations of which we can then interact and repeat this process recursively, thus remaining in a domain of interactions always larger than that of the representations.
We become self-conscious through self-observation; by making descriptions of ourselves (representations), and by interacting with our descriptions we can describe ourselves describing ourselves, in an endless recursive process.
Autopoiesis and Cognition.

Humberto R. Maturana.
Francisco J. Varela.
For Niels Bohr,
Nature is richer than our metaphysical prejudices, it has more imagination than we do.
The well defined and solid picture of the world given by the old physics is an illusion.
Meaningful Information : Utility and Relevance.
Natural systems rooted in the physical world.
Correlations that care both physical but also intentional.
Relative information is generated by the interactions that weave the world.
The organism cares about its relevant relative information, it connects between something internal and something else generally external,

Undifferentiated Landscapes.
A Field of Earth.
Jean Dubuffer.
Dubuffer used a plasterer's technique, in which walls are coated using shaken branches instead of loaded trowels. He applied many layers, scattered substances such as sand and other materials, the mortar was scratched, poked and prodded until it gave the impressions of teeming matter, alive and sparkling, he could then use it to evoke all kinds of indeterminate textures, even galaxies and nebula.

An Artist Who Uses Clay As Her Medium.
In 2019 Rebecca started a new body of work titled 'Graces' which was of great significance and helped her to re-ground her practice in sculptural exploration of symbolic relationship between architecture, industrial and bodily transfiguration.
In 2021 Rebecca was awarded a grant from the Arts Council to take risks and connect with a broader network and audiences, enriching and invigorating her career.
Interested in Order-Chaos-Impermanence, philosophical concepts addressing change.
