ATTENTION ON PERIPHERAL MOVEMENTS
Attending to materials and material determination.
Shifting, transforming, sliding. Contained and coming undone.
Un-restricting materials and re-contextualising the everyday through transformative processes.
Transforming material narratives. Taking the functionality of the object away. Materials existing as themselves, existing in a structured space. Bringing attention, observing, how they change, what they are. Revealing the materiality of materials.
Actions and reactions.
Actions that ask questions. Stacking, folding, compressing. Interrogating the space. Setting up installations and allowing time to encourage the forces of unpredictability, to transform the work, whether it is physically visible or not. What happens when you construct an action (visible or invisible) to be open to the forces of chance? Actions: waiting to happen, in motion, on the verge but never arrive, eventual.
There are limits in my work that reveal uncertainty, chance.
