Ecological approaches/affordances to aesthetic perception/production

When I gather together the animals, arguments, molecules, suggestions, forces, interpretations, sounds, people, and images of this study, one theme emerges. The modern story of disenchantment leaves out important things, and it neglects crucial sources of ethical generosity in doing so. Without modes of enchantment, we might not have the energy and inspiration to enact ecological projects, or to contest ugly and unjust modes of commercialization, or to respond generously to humans and nonhumans that challenge our settled identities. These enchantments are already in and around us.

Grasping the complexities involved in our negotiations with the world. 

Cognitive mapping within the aesthetic domain, locating the self against the otherwise, homogenising placelessness of contemporary existence.

Russell Moreton The Garden : Diagram, template and observational record. #1

Site drawing from "a pathway between sunrise and sunset" staged at Kilquhanity, Scotland 2011. This research has led to notions of architectural "interventions" and " footprints" through the direct observational mapping of celestial alignments and movements as they pass over the landscape.

Collage: Diversions, Contradictions and Anomalies.

Collage's integral methods of discordance and displacement have so insistently reflected turbulent developments in twentieth century art, science and geopolitics that our response might be to categorise the whole genre as iconoclasm or subversive fantasy.

Reflective journal and artist's book, a place to collage interests and findings whilst they wait to be discovered. This ongoing chronicle of explorations reflects the sense of "nowness" within the creative process. Most things lay dormant and waiting, their they remain encapsulated within the books fertile beauty.
