Giving Sensations Place/Site/Raveningham Sculpture Trail : Subjective/Hypothesis/Bricolage/Tectonics/Working Scripts/Making Camps.

 

IMMATERIAL ARCHITECTURES MAKING IN THE LANDSCAPE.

RAVENINGHAM SCULPTURE TRAIL 2018/2020

STIMULATING TENSIONS.

BRICOLAGE / HEURISTIC PRACTICE, Using things at hand, temporal, self constructions, becomings, mind forming explorations.


Mediating/Architecting the experience of LANDSCAPE.

The building as nothing more than an exposition of itself.

Georg Simmel, text Frames, Handles, Landscapes and the aesthetic ecology of things.


A subjective hypothesis, a drawing developed into an objectivity for experience/learning.

SITE, the undoing of PLACE.




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.

Art Practice as a Speculative Spatial Practice.

A reflective building is an echo not a statement.

Haptic devices/seating/dwelling in the landscapes of the mind. Landscape 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.

The Poetics of Order/Making/Odyssey : Dom Hans van der Laan/Tim Ingold/Jane Bennett

Architectonic Space: Fifteen Lessons on the Disposition of the Human Habitat

By Hans van der Laan

http://www.vanderlaanstichting.nl/en/home/







Makers work in a world that does not stand still


Iteration allows for continual correction (material conversation) in response to an ongoing perceptual monitoring of the task as it unfolds, mixing the potential for blending or combining matter that already exists into new combinations
Tim Ingold 2010

The social life of making
Making speaks in vivid dialogue with two associated themes, material and skill
Creativity involves not merely a spark of innovation or the execution of artistic inspiration. But the capacity to respond to unfolding iterations with materials. To use slowly accrued haptic knowledge to manipulate processes on the fly, and to judge how to counteract error and seize opportunities as they evolve 

Making becomes a process of iteration, and a maker works with this iteration prolifically 

Matter and materials are lively and require attention, materials continue to thwart in unpredictable ways, decaying and breaking down or wearing or breaking under force
Vibrant Matter, A Political Ecology of Things
Jane Bennett 2010

Attending to the process of making opens up prospects for following the lead of the material, where the properties of the materials themselves shape the direction in which making proceeds
Tim Ingold 2010

The aesthetic/vibrant spaces between objects

The poetics of order:










Dom Hans van der Laan’s architectonic space
Caroline Voet

Already in his first writings in the 1930s, Dom van der Laan aims to define architectural principles that provide an intellectual expression of the act of dwelling (‘wonen’). To dwell is to enter into a relationship with one’s surroundings, meaning to understand them. For van der Laan, this is the primordial function of architecture: it makes space readable. From his Benedictine background, he draws concepts that enable him to understand this complex process of cognition. He studies the old church fathers such as St Thomas Aquinas, especially his comments on Plato and Aristotle. The Benedictine way of life builds upon the intertwined relation between mystery and matter, between intellect and senses, believing that this relation can be expressed through a Platonic order.5 Professor van Hooff, in describing the work of Dom van der Laan, defines cognition as a dual process of synthesis and analysis.6 On the one hand, there is the act of living, a synthesis of the concrete and singular reality. On the other hand, there is the process of analysis by the abstracting intellect. For us to know the concrete and singular reality, an intense interrelation between the two processes is needed.
