The tissue drawings were positioned on top of a window located in front of the section of hedge we have been investigating. I’m interested in the interaction between the original source and the drawing.

Parted Drawing.

I’m excited by this layering and interaction. The above photograph suggests a rip in the drawing revealing the sky behind and I think on as to how moving, parting and tearing could become an further extension of the work.

Borrowed Scenery.

These images set me thinking about “borrowed scenery”- a technique employed within the creation of traditional Japanese gardens. The garden is composed in such a way as to frame/“borrow”, various elements from the outlying countryside eg. The peaks of distant mountains drawn in visually by the boughs of carefully manipulated trees.

On this our last day our collaboration continues to open up possibilities for development of the work.
