I feel like this workshop has opened up more questions about place than provided answers…in a good way.
place as matter
space as matter
is place the same thing as space?
Somehow the word space feels more open to me.
Is space a physical place or is it something more fluid, ephemeral…
People share space, share history, share meaning, share marks…make marks – as a proof of space?
I have experimented with the concept of space and how I can use my ideas about it to engage, and maybe collaborate with my surroundings…the surrounders.
Working in real-time…in the future…in the past.
Thinking about the mark maker as the creator – the creator as mark maker…
Having been far away from my home country for the past year I have reminisced about “home”. In the final project I worked with my ideas about “home”. Traveling from Vancouver to Rejmyre – I thought: will I ever find my way back home?
In actions I re-enacted my childhood-games, using materials that exist and inform my grown-up consciousness. Via the device of regression I have tried to create a map that might help me find my way home.
