initial 'nut out'

I have decided to put theory into practice and keep a blog as a form of ‘live’ journal to document my thoughts, research and process during my honours project - a re presentation of my working practice.

Alongside the practicality of being able to instantly show and record time based work maybe this blog can also act as a forum, merging process and reception allowing the conversation to extend beyond the confines of my studio.

Underpinning my study this year is an understanding of the reception of art. I am interested in exploring perceptual tendencies, that is the direct experience of perception and in particular the way in which we experience representation.

Initially I am looking at the relation between representation – (the process of a works making), and reception (how it is perceived). I’m sure this will bend and sway overtime, but I’m hoping through this journal to document and trace the lineage of my thoughts and work.
