Art, What?

The questions of representation, materials and things

The agency of objects
Between the metaphorical and the performatic
Between the symbolic and the operative
Between images and processes
Between abstraction and figuration and beyond
Between aesthetics and ethics
The triangulation of idea, material, object, image and scale

PROMPT
Can you represent-interprate-translate the meaning of something, the sensation of something, the experience of something into something else? using an unexpected medium? tool? narrative?
i.e., how to ‘experience’ sound without voice or hearing?

* think of Anya's ice into water in the London pump room, or countries of the world cut out of  and thrown into new archipelagos. This is an exercise in process, in passing one system through another

MORE INFO TO COME! This one due for critique monday/wednesday. We will split into two groups - keep up with the blog for more on this too
