“Flux within the studio space: exploring the rhythms and cycles of art-making in the art\u00a0studio”<\/p>\n

In this paper I explore how the studio operates as a space to perform the activities of art-making. I show how corporeal movement can be part of process in which a practitioner enters the state of \u2018flow\u2019, and discuss how artists such as Walter de Maria and Bruce\u00a0Nauman have created artworks by intentionally framing these physical \u2018pre-flow\u2019 activities. Drawing from my own experience, I consider how embodied rhythms are part of the interplay between daily domestic cycles and those of studio practice, and the repercussions that these dynamics have had on some of the practical aspects of making artworks. Finally, I explore how the studio functions as a protected space where it is possible to move from a state of \u2018not knowing\u2019 to one of \u2018making meaning\u2019, via the physical activities of making in the studio.<\/div>\n

“On location: (re)visiting the past”<\/p>\n

This paper shares initial outcomes of my recent scoping trips to sites in the Devon landscape, for a new project that explores embodied feminisms in relation to the land, guided by the artist\u2019s book,\u00a0Escaping Notice<\/i>, published by Annabel Nicolson in 1977. A significant figure of the British feminist avant-garde of the 1970s, who operated across a range of practices from performance to expanded cinema and experimental music, Nicolson put her female body and the performed tasks of domestic labour in an \u2018other\u2019 place, to create hybrid concepts and paradoxical notions that both reveal and conceal the feminine in and out of place.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
