Regarding the collage:

Incongruous

Gordon Matta-Clark  - I link to /James Turrell

Sam Griffin

How important is it that they existed before? this is about thinking how much the origins are important in the collages or images - could it be anything or is it in the details of the work already created or in specifically made images to deconstruct and reorder.

How important is it that it's my work?

film it & photograph

materials and interaction

thread of thought and connection, gathering, pull - rupture, a way of thinking

space -

&where we place ourselves -

planes - punching through and mapping

what happens outside the frame image & territory that is known - mapping

the territory of practice - table or frame

a photo of table & work, then sideways - multiview, what is beyond the piece - untangled threads, pulling away

google - the relationship of something I can’t grasp

What do I want? seeing the ‘other’ in it  

Manifesto- who you are

the lense

informing the work & the dialogue

& the entanglements of matter around the clarity & the perception

the knot & embroidery what is clear and ordered about the stitch and what is knotted and complicated. we discussed the difference between the front of embroidery and the back.

the unpicking

repetition & what is found

What do we overlook -

contain, contrast & leave out

tendrils

What is lost and what is found in repetition

Agreed actions:

  • explore collage further - continue with own work collage as that has urgency and explore the possibilities of found image collage, how does that change the work?
  • consider the territory of the work - where does it start and finish? what happens outside of these parameters? How does that affect the work? Consider the frame.
  • delve into the possibility of the thread and its tendrils, what does the repetition of embroidery do for the work? How does this thread metaphorically and physically move through and within it?
  • Keep notes of reflections and discussions I’m having about my work.
  • question scale and the imagery that is on the outside of the frame?
