continued making over the summer
i just thought i'd post about a few things that i have been up over the summer so far. perhaps not working to the same intensity that i had been during term time but keeping thing moving all the same. 'impressions' print biennale: one of the first things that came up was being selected to... Continue Reading →
landscape of sorts
ongoing: since my end of year submission i still seem to be spending my weekends in the studio researching, thinking about and/or working on a few different ideas and submissions in print and video. first up - wasn't happy with an edition i submitted which ended being shortlisted for a show so i reprinted it...

bini oculus: stereo landscape continued
bini oculus: i responded to an 'open call' brief for the 'one minutes' video archive etc. last week, using some footage i recorded of the landscape using 2 i-phones simultaneously. the 'open call' brief suggested alienation amongst other things, so i wanted to explore landscape through the strangeness of the human eye's binocular vision where the left...

in/complete landscape continued
a step further: i have been meaning to revisit the screen printing exploratory series 'incomplete landscape' that i started which uses a split or two-part landscape image where the viewer has to move eyeline to complete the landscape into a single frame - again continuing my exploration of multiple views and unfixed perspectives. as i...

contact: landscape as image
physical contact: there are many ideas that i want to develop further from my 'landscape and lens' residency. i have been sitting at my desk for the last few days writing my paper on the lens as an embodied practice so was looking forward to getting back to some physical image making. as well as...

approach to research & making (intersections and articulations)
research and making: one of the things that i noticed when i was doing my 'residency' was the two way process of research and making, not mutually exclusive but co-existing. prior to starting exploratory making on the 'residency' i had been doing a lot of research reading and writing on landscape and lens as an...

contact through lens: contact sheet series (day 5 & 6: landscape & lens ‘residency’)
day 5 & 6: for my last couple of days here, i wanted to just slow down: pause in the landscape as opposed to move through it. i have been thinking of developing a series of screen prints in a 'contact sheet' format mainly because i am interested in taking a multiple view approach to...

frame & framed: analogue versus digital technology (day 4: landscape & lens ‘residency’)
day four: we are having such beautiful weather here at the moment that it's not hard to put in a few hours exploratory making on the mountains. today i got up early and headed for lake muskry in the galtee mountains as i wanted to avoid other walkers incase i wanted to film. i also...

handshake landscape handscape landshake: a shutter speed series (day 3: landscape and lens ‘residency’)
day 3: i went up to the woods today and with a plan this time. returning to the action of the camera again but this time to explore or maybe reinforce the lens as an embodied practice by changing one of its technical aspects which directly links to the action of the body - the shutter...

landscape: framed by the framer (day 2: landscape and lens ‘residency’)
day 2: for day two I took off up the galtee mountains again and, like yesterday, my exploratory work started in an unplanned way. as well as thinking about landscape and lens, i wanted to take a quick selfie on the mountains for a FB post. again I was struck by the idea myself as framer...

landscape and lens ‘residency’ (day 1 to 5)
lens versus eye - an iso series (day 1: landscape and lens 'residency') creating a 'residency': after revisiting my PPP, i have been thinking about creating my own residency because so many residences that i've researched either don't suit my available time frame due to work commitments or do not suit the kind of exploratory...
