Wayfaring/Lines and Interior Spaces : Materials of movement and attention.

Processual clay+ceramic constructions that articulate through processes of mark making and intermediaries, surfaces spatial bodies and interiors all entangled in a complex scaffolding of its own making.

"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 Quiet Mind : Silently without resistance. Books/Reliquaries : Working of matters and the exteriority of their relations. Marking/Wayfaring Inscriptions : Clay+Ceramic

(Sound of barking) Do you listen to that dog? Wait, wait. Silently? Listen to it completely silently, which means without any resistance, without any irritation, just listen to it. When you listen quietly there is no resistance, there is no irritation, you do not identify yourself with the dog and the barking of it, your mind is quiet. Krishnamurti.

Meditation The meaning of that word is to measure, basically (for oneself).

Curriculum making as the enactment of dwelling in places,

Thrown ceramic vessels fired on the remote beach at St Ninian’s Cave, Scotland.

These vessels were originally thrown on a momentum wheel situated in the small niche like space of a scriptorium. The interiority of the bowls seek to reflect the quietness and openness of a ‘retreat’ through material and the muted light of its surroundings. A post firing process was employed of removing the bowls and their still molten interior into a chamber excavated on the beach to become reduced by local organic material and to cool. Once cooled the bowls were washed in the Irish Sea to reveal their glazed interiors for the first time.

Heidegger’s topology, Being Place, World.

Jeff Malpas on the concept of place and how it relates to core philosophical issues found in Heidegger’s engagement with place, his philosophical starting point: of finding ourselves already ’’there” situated in the world, in “place.”

Clarifying the relation between space and place which contains inherent difficulties in as much as they are necessarily connected (inasmuch as place carries a spatial element within it even while space is also a certain abstraction from out of place), but there has been a pervasive tendency for place to be understood in terms of purely spatial. Jeff Malpas

SPACE= ROOM TO MOVE

or as a verb To Make EMPTY, EVACUATE, EMPTY OUT. The Production of Space/Human Agency/Place

PLACE=VTLLAGE, TOWN, or OTHER SETTLED LOCALITY.

PLACE=HOME

PLACE=A VERY SPECIFIC FORM OF BOUNDEDNESS/GATHERING As a gathering of elements that are themselves mutually defined only through the way in which they are gathered together within the place they also constitute.

DESIGN=TO PUT IN PLACE

Place referred to merely in the sense of position or location - usually the location or position of some already identified and determined entity.

Slippages, Anomalies and liminal spaces. Our relationships with space and place.

THE MEMORY OF PLACE

A PHENOMENOLOGY OF THE UNCANNY

Dylan Trigg’s The Memory of Place charts the memorial landscape into the body and its experience of the world. Trigg analyses monuments in the representation of public memory, “transitional” concepts such as airports and highway rest stops; and the “ruins” of both memory and place in sites such as Auschwitz. The Memory of Place argues that the eerie disquiet of the uncanny is at the core of the remembering body, and thus of ourselves.

STOA, a complex topology.

The Stoics took their name from the place where they met. In the stoa they talked as they walked along the long shaded alcoves. The stoa offered shelter from the sun and rain without becoming an enclosed room. It was an in-between and transitional space, neither outside nor inside. Conversations could commence through casual interruptions in a site of gossip, rumour and information.

We imagine the stoa as a spatial metaphor for the emergence of critical consciousness within the transnational public sphere. It is a space for criticality without the formal requirement of political deliberation and for sociality without the duty of domestication.

The stoa is the pivot point at which private and public spheres interact and from which the cosmopolitan sense of being and belonging from the vantage point of the stoa, then the telematic linking of two screens in the public squares of Australia and Korea can be viewed in a new light.

The linking of these screens creates a new transnational public space, a space for the creation of a new discourse on the topology of the cosmopolitan imagination in contemporary art practice.

Thinking the place of art within this context is more than jumping from either the local to the global, the private/oikos to the public/bouletrion, or even the singular to the universal. It is more like the liminal zone of the stoa.

Public Screens and Participatory Public Space Nikos Papastergiadis, Scott McQuire

Flesh and Stone,

The Body and the City in Western Civilization. Richard Sennett.1994

Basically a long shed, the stoa contained both cold and hot, sheltered and exposed dimensions; the back side of the shoa was walled in, the front side consisted of of a colonnade which gave access onto the open space of the agora. Though free-standing the stoas were not conceived as independent structures, but rather as edging for the open space of the agora.

Heidegger-To participate with the thing in its thinging

Our most fundamental architectural experiences, as Juhani Pallasmaa explains, are verbal rather than nominal in form. They consist not of encounters with objects - the facade, door-frame, window and fireplace - but of acts of approaching and entering, looking in or out, and soaking up the warmth of the hearth (Pallasmaa 1996: 45). 

As inhabitants, we experience the house not so much as an object but as a thing. (Ingold 2008: 8)

Field Photography: Light on Natural Phenomena and Site.

Pinhole photography and photograms on light sensitive paper with annotations from both research material and working practices. Visual material and artefacts acquired from archaeological sites whilst participating in recording the archaeological process at St Mary Magdalene Leper Hospital, Mom Hill, Winchester. The work explores subjectivities in the recording of natural phenomena, the spirit of place and its scientific inquiry and production of fabricated forms in the realm of a contemporary art context.

Working Out of the Archive : Praesentia/In the Light of the Day.

Adam Sharr, notes that for Heidegger, a building was built according to the specifics of place and inhabitants, shaped by its physical and human topography.

Made from earth/clay/fire connected the human experience of earth and sky. Heidegger attributed sacred qualities to the jugs ability to give/to pour. Part of his fourfold cosmology of earth, sky, divinities and mortals. This “fourfold” represents Heidegger’s attempt at what he judges to be the most primary circumstances of existence, “ the inescapable pre-requisite of the world into which humans are thrown without consent (1962,164-168).

The Field.

The basic methodology of anthropology is ethnography. This is the famous 'fieldwork' in which the researcher shares the daily life of a different culture (remote or close), observes, records, tries to grasp the 'indigenous point of view' and writes.

Politics is also the art of administrating and producing subjects, citizens.

Preface (1921) ” The great city of this story is no more than a nightmare of Capitalism triumphant, a nightmare that was dreamt a quarter of a century ago. It is a fantastic possibility no longer possible. Much evil may be in store for mankind, but to this immense, grim organization of servitude, our race will never come” H.G. Wells. Easton Glebe, Dunmow,1921.

"He rubbed his eyes. The riddle of his surroundings was confusing but his mind was quite clear - evidently his sleep had  benefited him. He was not in a bed at all as he understood the word, but lying naked on a very soft and yielding mattress, in a trough of dark glass. The mattress was partly transparent, a fact he observed with a sense of insecurity, and below it was a mirror reflecting him greyly. Above his arm- and he saw with a shock that his skin was strangely dry and yellow - was bound a curious apparatus of rubber, bound so cunningly that it seemed to pass into his skin above and below. And this bed was placed in a case of greenish-coloured glass (as it seemed to him), a bar in the white framework of which had first arrested his attention. In the corner of the case was a stand of glittering and delicately made apparatus, for the most part quite strange appliances, though a maximum  and minimum thermometer was recognizable."

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
