Field Trip Brief – Reflect and consider – Concepts, Contexts and Practice (PLACE)
Three little words
Macro (large scale, overall)
Micro (small scale)
Minutiae (seemingly trivial things often overlooked)
Using one of the following words at each site record your senses/interact with a space at increasing intervals from your home or the Art School.
Task 1 – 1 meter
Task 2 – up to ½ mile
Task 3 – up to 1 mile
Recording these places can take any form (photographs, sound, drawing, performance etc.).
Here is my answer to this brief. It is a visual exercise that I do a lot during my travels. Training my senses to feel the space I am in. To absorb the sounds, smells, textures and colours to the point of sensory overstimulation.
It allows me to find wonder and the extraordinary things in the spaces around me.
