Description
Technique and process are the framework upon which all aesthetic expressions in Art are hung. An Artist is restricted by the physical limits of the medium and processes by which he/she manipulate that medium. The particular processes that I am exploring are slip-cast ceramics and audio/video art. Since being awarded the URC Grant I have been able to purchase a slip pump for use with slipcasting and also small video cameras. These acquisitions have changed the processes that I work with, which I will demonstrate and/or illustrate through digital images recording the processes. This presentation will show how the techniques allowed by the new equipment acquired through the URC Grant have shaped the work that it was used with, as well as the an overview of the my general aesthetic trajectory.
