artist statement:
panorama
The 2005 installation titled MAP ROOM consists of two sets of sequenced works on paper made during a 2005 fellowship and artist residency at the Camargo Foundation in Cassis, France. Previous interest in conceptual gene pools are redefined in these works which record daily observations and responses to the private work/live and community environments in Cassis. Panorama uses the name of one the major buildings at of the Camargo Foundation and follows its all encompassing perspective.
Using a surface of translucent paper and charting tape as a drawing material, a branching linear path was laid down to link the dynamics of the group of interdisciplinary fellows |
as they inhabited the physical environment. Panorama is a continuous drawing (62 feet) approximating the circumference of the artist’s studio at Camargo. Japanese kozo paper, divided into 42 segments (9x18.5 inches each) are now joined in paired couplings and sequenced for installation. While stretching around the parameter of the room, the work offers complexity of marking that requires close and focused inspections of detail as one moves through its encircling form. The intention of panorama underscores the conceptual framework of an active space where ideas intermingle and creative works are in an open state of connection, change, influence, grafting and re-arrangement. |
