This item is a sculptural ceramic artwork by artist Russell Moreton, specifically developed from his interest in architectural spaces and material construction.     Artist: Russell Moreton, a visual fine artist based in Harleston, Norfolk. Material: Slab-built clay and ceramic bodies. Theme: Explores themes of 'Making', interior spaces, and metaphysical immersive nature. Style: Involves intense textures and architectural, almost meditative forms.


Sociological Bindings~Matter(s) of Concern

Felt Abstractions~Inspirational Radicalism.

Urban Gothic : An Excess Of Changefulness.


Of the creation of concepts, explored through the plane of immanence in which it can be born and the 'conceptual personae' which can activate it.


On Other Forms Of Thought.

What Is Philosophy?

Deleuze and Guattari.

Can perhaps only be posed late in life with the arrival of old age and the time for speaking concretely.

It is a question posed in a moment of quiet restlessness at midnight when there is no longer anything to ask.

Their book is a profound and careful interrogation of what it might mean to be a 'friend of wisdom'. But it is also a devastating attack on the sterility of what has become. When the only events are exhibitions and the only concepts are products which can be sold.

Philosophy they insist is not contemplation, reflection or communication, but the creation of concepts.


Essays : Critical and Clinical.

Deleuze is concerned with the delirium, the process of life that lies behind this invention as well as the loss that occurs. The silence that follows when this delirium becomes a clinical state.

Disjunction and Event/Processual Research : Collage/Constrained Spaces/Spatial Body

Processual Making/Messy Entanglements : Creating sustained flows of engagement resulting in some connections that can occur but not others, working practices that can create a pattern or field of relations/resistance or constraint.

Movement is Material.

Mobility/New Social Assemblages

Ingold/Thrift

Movement creates differences, it resists and perpetuates between human bodies/spatial bodies.

Constrained spaces shaped by the tensions of the environment.

Combined works/conceptual frameworks with research as an integral part of the practice to produce ways of sensing/making ecologies of  knowledge.

Ecology-as-Assemblage

An assemblage is able to retroactively affect its parts.

Human identities and bodies are inherently multiple, relational and dependant on more-than-human presences. 

On Landscape Ontology, Bryant. 2011


The co-existence of such heterogeneous dimensions and demands makes up the 'event.' The event is a sudden intensity generated by the juxtaposition and superimposition of differences. The event tends to exacerbate differences rather than making everything similar.

Disjunction and Event.

New Materialism/Interviews and Cartographies.

Ann Arbor, Karen Barad, Dolphijn and Tuin. 2012

Agency is about an ability to respond, to change things, about the possibilities of worldly reconfigurations, in this way it enlists non-humans as well as humans.

Human capacity becomes distributed rather than situated in a hegemonic subject-object relationship. Rather it is a result of complex heterogenous entanglements, networks, imbroglio's, assemblages and ecologies. In this perspective, agency is not something possessed solely by humans or for that matter, non-humans.
