The drawing situation together with its materials act as an active threshold between now and from elsewhere.
Street rubbing from Andover town centre done in-situ with added astronomical data. Footprints drawn and represented in lead together with lead strips and masking tape. Installed and further acted upon in a temporal studio space set-up as a working inquiry between public space and that of a "practice"( the artist's domicile/thinking/working-out space).
A provisional research ecology: material absorbed in its own thoughts. A gathering place for things being made, read, sensed and thought. Images, texts, bodies, spaces and matter(s) move through correspondence, forming tentative rooms of inquiry. Research circulates between depth and surfacing, archive and anarchive, allowing propositions to return, migrate and become otherwise.
