Presentation Type:Oral Presentation
After exhibiting the work 'Untitled (Rust)' at the Annex Gallery in Glasgow (part of the 'Field Notes' exhibition 2025) I was invited to contribute work to the publication 'Do Rocks Remember Lava' by curator Leo Hajducki. Her interdisciplinary research draws on her background in Philosophy and Politics, exploring the intersections of materiality and ecological thought. My response to this invitation was an eight-page visual essay describing the research process around a current project 'Pauls Turn' where I had transformed rust material from Anthony Caros sculpture 'Pauls Turn' (1971) into ink. The visual essay included photographs describing the research journey from harvesting waste material in the Hunterian Sculpture Courtyard at Glasgow University where the work is displayed, to ink making, then printing. The final two images are displayed on the last pages of the essay - 'Pauls Turn' (a photo etching) and 'These Words' (a printed text). The images face each other in conversation, referencing the original sculpture from which they are printed, creating space between image and text. Using an ecological perspective I will discuss this practice-led research to address questions of agency, authorship, ethics and conservation.
