You can slow down an experience

What is the temporal condition of sculpture?

What is brought into being through the work?

Can you see the process within the work- is it inherent?

What definitions to we put on practice?

Questions from HR

  1. Where is the edge of the work> How are the limits of a work established? take a particular example(s) of work (own or others) you are familiar with and discuss
  2. How do you make use of/i=understand/consider the 'in-between' in relations to your own practices? Take a particular example

Break out room 1 - Helen Rousseau, 15/10/2018

Jo, Mark, Mozhdeh, Katie

Where is the edge of the work? How are the limits of a work established? Take a particular example(s) of work (own or others) you are familiar with and discuss.

Mark: I was interested in the idea of edges between artists and audience.  I like the idea of the gallery/studio space is open and accessible

And takes away curator issue

Jo and Mozhdeh spoke about accessing galleries and types of galleries and how accessible these opportunities are globally and regionally. How are they accessed?

Katie: Not necessarily where but more ‘Who’ actually sets the edges of the work? Does the artist have a say in it, or does the work and/or the viewer decide? Once the work is out of the creator's hands its edges are its own. Does the work need an ‘edge’? Can it be open? Who requires the definition of ‘edge’?  

Kimberley: Emergent practices

Not really an edge but a punctuation, a comma or a stopping point, a moment to breathe

Other notes:

Hermeneutics?

Preoccupy

On Kawara Date Paintings - the moment that you experience the 'I wish I thought of that' - the boxes, the lettering, the language THE RULES!!! of the Rules! I love this capturing moment in an intricate simplicity. 

THATS WHAT IT IS I"M STRIVING FOR AN INTRICATE SIMPLICITY.
