have struggled with trying to find solutions for the pendulum of knobs. I know I want to keep the audio but need to work on the form I had trialled all sorts of ways to cluster the knobs together but the fishing wire looked tacky and they were tricky to take apart. I ordered some […]
this is a continuation from a previous post (salt & pepper experiments) I installed the wax teapots and experimented with sounds I had recorded and was playing through headphone speakers inside the pots the sound isn’t loud enough and after much testing I have now found some speakers that will fit inside the teapots if […]
After my meeting with Alyson and trialling installing bits indoors I needed to decide on exactly what I wanted record or write list of sounds I want detail what sounds for what pieces sounds in tubes, screaming, whispering, music, domestic sounds detail each installation and what I need – speakers, leads to go with each […]
working on the speaker boxes again – I have edged all the shapes and also created some with carpet offcuts – I like the idea of mixing up fractures of domesticity – I also think that the material will alter the sound I played with the speaker boxes in the space using tape as […]
I bought thin ply and set about building structures that could contain sound and the pipes I found an edging that is flexible which is an industrial material – it is quite thin yet pliable – am not sure if this is the right material to use yet looking at these objects I realised […]
I carried out various tests on which doorknob/material would have the best effect I am looking for. To film a projection which is being projected onto something doesn’t always give the same effect as being there in person! If I were to project from the front of the door then the wax with netting would […]
i have successfully made an agar solution that is strong and sturdy enough to retain it’s shape over time when left uncovered and at room temperature the agar will shrivel and collapse if contained in a sealed environment then the shape and size of the agar remains I intend to cast three doorknobs from agar […]
As part of the the Falmouth Workshop this is one of the few I was able to book onto. I brought along some petri dishes of swabs I had taken from around my house – in particular the doorknobs It was a fascinating workshop and above are some images taken during the day. I am […]
using bits of flooring I had used previously I cut shapes out of the vinyl to ground and base the pipes this gave strength and weight to the origin of the pipes used – by playing with the composition of these shapes and pipes they appeared to start a dialogue with each other – by […]
This is a selection of the collages that I make as part of my practice The collage help inform my work and thinking. As I create this I am able to reflect and process my thoughts of the objects, film and installation I am working on. They enable me to sometimes realise quick solutions to […]
