 "Connecting the unconnected"

 Text Piece, Response to our Video.


Continuing this notion of 'Connecting the unconnected' And 'Exquisite Archive', i have looked at the video of each of us interpreting our brief and from that created the above text piece. Individuality is important to us, whilst all the while working in a collaborative context. Although we were all working to the same "Drawing Duration and Narrative brief' prior to this each of us had very different outcomes, and focus's. Despite this there are some clear parallels between all of our practices, such as an interest in a lack of control, nature and the mind.

Primarily my focus in the last project was exploring the medium of Drawing and in particular it's transient qualities. Furthermore my project was concerned with nature and how nature itself could be seen as an artists creating performative drawings, especially in context with the sea and local landscape in the surrounding 'Newcastle'. Lastly i investigated how we as humans inadvertently create drawings in the everyday just by 'being' either leaving traces of our presence in the environment or as a performance though our movements.

We hope that this new project, can be a continuing development of our most recent work.
