jug. object of service. essential or redundant? (image: jug. 2017. screen print. e. crowe).
questioning the domestic
work or play? asking questions about movement and the domestic sphere
questioning the domestic
filled with questions tonight on possible starting points for research and making. perhaps start close to home. domestic things benign and threatening. (image: scissors. 2017. screen print. e. crowe).
studio
listing all the things I do in my studio. sometimes its the 'first frame' for my work (Buren, 1979). sometimes it's the last frame. mostly I'm moving somewhere in the middle. sometimes I'm not there at all - starting and ending beyond the studio.
participatory involvement
primal home (2015) reflecting on participatory involvement - as artist and as audience. sometimes an accidental participant. often a reluctant participant. possibly always an enriched participant. recalling walking as a participatory art practice and its possibilities (images: primal home, 2015, accidental participation and collaboration in the making of work with my mother).
time for making
lots of reflection and research today. how I make. why I make. what I make..... make time for making.
reading and thinking
reading artists' interviews tonight. thinking about thinking. thinking about making. thinking about the ironing.
an tús
tabula rasa. beginning my MA with a blank slate and a lot of questions.
