Dec. 2015 – Jan. 2016 artist residency <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A collection of readings. Video was recorded of the following people. I am really just gathering gestures – each of which contains within it a communication of living messages – evidence of life. A still from that video was then used to acquire a reading – a triangulation of the image. This is a process I employ to translate that living presence into a precise form, the triangle mesh, which can also be easily represented as a table of data. I generated some animations of the creation process – a playback of the order in which the lines were drawn. A few are found below. This is just the beginning, and with each new project I move a little further into the process. I am always seeking new strategies for working with this data – data that I treat as the representation of living presence – I approach working with it from that angle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I painted two large scale reproductions of triangle meshes using white acrylic on a solid deep blue background – one of the empty field and one of Olga – they can be seen below along with links to my online shop. Thank you dearly to all who participated: Olga, Miranda Hill, Melissa Goldstein, Wendalyn Bartley, Cheldon Paterson (SlowPitchSound). You are all very generous, talented, and kind. Really had a lot of fun working on this and meeting new people – very fond memories of Artscape Gibraltar Point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
