The spatial discourse appears to have come almost a full circle. Comparing the beginning of this residency to its current state, a simplicity is starting to slowly occur again. Having a finite time, as with everything, means more thought and less doing. I think that there has to be an element of consolidation for the benefits of two months work and six collaborations to take place and I do not wish to throw this away.
Through installation, expanded sculpture, photography and film and sometimes pseudo-scientific experiments, I am trying to create a dialogue between space and place using interventions and interruptions as part of a site-specificity that explores in-between spaces, inside and outside, nowhere and somewhere. I use temporary, ephemeral and provisional interruptions, to locate, re-locate and re-contextualise territory referencing what has been, what is or what could be, the past, the present and the future and where it intersects with the human relationship. They often refer to incidental happenings that create a transformation of objects. The notion of absence, as possibility rather than lack, is an underlying theme within the concepts of territory, whether historical, political, geographical, cultural as well as how it is colonized, altered, used and navigated and, relating to this, place and placelessness.Â
