about

Making is the production of relations through material events. What I think is emerging is an ontology of making. The clay isn’t the subject. The object isn’t the outcome.

Relation between time and form. Relation between making and knowing. Visual artist working in the UK. UCA Farnham, Interior Design MA. Canterbury School of Architecture, Spatial Practices MA.

Originally posted on Photogenic Architecture: Cyanotypes are photographic prints generated from UV radiation i.e. sunlight with various chemicals.
