Collection

As part of a strong artistic practice, collection or gathering, are an integral part. This allows the artist to record, archive, draw inspiration from and document their particular experience. No two artists approach this process the same way thereby giving insight in the patterns of interest, range of investigation and emotional connections of each artist.

For our purposes, I am asking you to choose one specific place that you can visit repeatedly and "collect" something everyday from there. This 'work a day' can take virtually any form, can change material, theme, process, etc. It could take the form of sketches on sight or from memory, written elements, collage, photos, rubbings, self portraits in the space....etc.

Included in these weekly works,  I am asking you to make 3 scanograms a week from your place. This therefore must be a found object or something made- tangible. Scanning will allow us to make it two- dimensional as well as provide another photo option.

Below are some examples:
