Painting and Clay Construction : Few boundaries are impenetrable : They are rather, semi-permeable membranes providing housing while allowing selective commerce
Site-Specificity/Spatial Practice
The distinguishing characteristic of today's site-oriented art is the way in which both the art work's relationship to the actuality of a location (as site) and the social conditions of the institutional frame (as site) are subordinated to a discursively determined site that is delineated as a field of knowledge, intellectual exchange or cultural debate
Miwon Kwon 1997
Whilst temporary exhibitions can expand the scope of medium-specific discourse, they can also impose alternative, but equally restrictive frames
Participation, creating a bridge between socially engaged practice and the permanent collection
Expressing itself expressing
Creating a conceptual and linguistic dexterity between absolutes, certainties, definitions
Dissolving the intellectual relevance, with its symbiotic relationship with utility to create 'vessels' beyond art and artifact
The strategy of making artworks as response
The Ceramic Object, by means of preservation and display becomes a vehicle/vessel for a social and historical narrative/entanglement/engagement
Making vessels, beyond the examining and intellectually impoverished questions
A vessel is identified as such by its physical disposition, giving shape to the contents and clarifying what is inside and what is outside
Few boundaries are impenetrable
They are rather, semi-permeable membranes providing housing while allowing selective commerce
Like the vessel, the house shapes and nurtures the life contained inside
The Factory I build in the Tate is a place to discuss the transactions and transformations of Labour that Create Knowledge and Community
In the Factory we will examine skills and how we form Exchanges at Work , with ourselves and with others

The Politics of Architecture : Theorizing through speculative spatial practices.
"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 yeilding 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."

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.
