there's 8 separate rivers in London with many of them now being under water and all of them including the canals are on the north side of the river where i grew up. crossing the river and being away from the water was a sort of rite of passage for me, the visual of looking out over the Thames in the moving van to come to uni is still strong in my brain but despite that i felt massively uninspired by the Thames as a location and what it represents for London. although the crossing of it is significant for me the actual river for me is uninteresting so i went back to the river i knew best when i was a child to 18. 

this was a place where me and my friends would go for days by the river and parties, swim in it, cycle by it, it was just where we flocked to in a very human way. but as thats where i came of age in a way my memories of the places, looking back, now makes me feel uneasy. not only did bad things happen there but all of the people i associate with the place have all left London and its now too bitter feeling to go back, but the river keeps running. ]]> 2022-11-10 11:07:06 UTC https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2378428759 river(lea) walk drawings lolacleary7 https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2378429397 before going on the walk I prepared two a3 sheets of ink grounds where I soaked the paper in water then dropped ink from a height then blotted it with tissue over and over as the paper gradually dried.
I picked the best parts and made them fit into my sketchbook so I could make several spreads to draw on at different sections of the river ]]> 2022-11-10 11:07:30 UTC https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2378429397 lolacleary7 https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2378429991 each one is done at a different section of the river, I found myself stopping at familiar places rather then places that I thought looked the nicest
the four locations go as followed 
- the secret spot you have to climb through a fence to get to that I would go with a friend to
- the location of my first date 
- the fallen tree I would sit on with my friend 
- where I went swimming with someone I no longer speak to

-phd researcher and visual artists studying relations between people from an eco feminist view point
-ran informal educational workshops with the aim of bringing people together in the for front
-project aimed to investigate feminist historical and contemporary trajectories in education
-exploring womens potential in education dispute the distance of lock down
- Resina:: developing alternative and slow paced educated experiments and experiences supporting and connecting women in Italy and London through various media
-these women were rice farmers within the region of resina, and through groups initially formed for singing they formed bonds and collaboration eventually leading to a union forming achieving greater workers rights in the rice fields
-in the summer residency they explored the worki f womens relationship with eachpther and the land and how their farming impacts the land and greater biodiversity
:::: everything from culture to lands is connected and all rotate around the rice fields
-the practices explore the human experience around the land in non human centric practices
-the connection (dispute cultural and generational differences) was made by the research being done by women with the women in the rice field, they approached it with their own knowledge and respect for other women which allowed for an empathetic and natural project and work to be created
- respect is vital in collaboration
-the more different perspective in collaboration the more new combinations of ideas can be made
-Polyphony:::: where in music autonomous Melodie's intertwine so dissonant harmonies are created - you must appreciate the multiple temporal rhythms and trajectories of the assemblage
--- it is created entirely through collaboration with everyone adding the same thing into the group
-by contributing you great with collaboration with others
-'the older tree nurtured the young ones and provide them with food and water just as we do with our own children'

Becoming a ghost in both environments of your family home and your new home you're trying to build and I can explore that topic within my specialism and peers

I was initially drawn to her work because of the textures she creates in her work and her creative approach to book binding but after learning about her inspirations I understood why I feel like she feels like a good fit for this project.

when describing her process she is quoted as saying "manipulating material through building and breaking", exploring the "mediative practice of working with your hands" which is something I have been trying to directly impliment in my project, material first process can create very dynamic and practical outcomes. 

the book work [pictured above] is most interesting to me, she layers and moods paper and acrylic and embeds objects and buildable fibres to create work that feels like its grown-- in a way it has as her process is very much working with the materials and layering them over some time. every page of her books is a sculpture in their own right and her process of working with feeling and comfort in mind and focusing mostly on materials is what gives her work such a naturalistic feel

-- my one criticism of her that i have struggled to not think about when looking at work is she talks a lot about being an environmentalist and making work from nature but she uses resin and acrylic in her work. these two substances are not only plastics but make toxic waste in the process of using them, her actual work seems very gentle but shes not as thoughtful in her actual process which is something i aim to not only do in this project but in all my work]]> 2022-11-17 02:22:25 UTC https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2387583416 laura soto 2d response lolacleary7 https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2387583709 2022-11-17 02:22:41 UTC https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2387583709 Interview write up lolacleary7 https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2387583905 I wanted to draw from other peoples experiences of grief with moving away - with mine being focused around seeking comfort at the river and my crossing of the river and if anyone has had similar experiences. I took only short statements or phrases or stories from people, like a field researcher, I wanted to open up further research from what people say

I used the same medium for this whole workshop to focus on contrast in technique not medium, I could very easily get a contrast in texture and line work if I used fine liner then acrylic but I don't think they would be cohesive despite working from the same primary research. I think using the same medium (gouache) means they share a visual language and you can put more focus on what I have chosen to draw ]]> 2022-11-17 14:02:37 UTC https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2388326314 focusing just on colour lolacleary7 https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2388327559 Looking over the bank ]]> 2022-11-17 14:03:22 UTC https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2388327559 working from a previous drawing lolacleary7 https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2388330430 here I worked from a drawing I did on site (small drawing) and pushed it to more extreme perspective and position on the page -- I do think I could've pushed this further to have a more foreboding sense of space]]> 2022-11-17 14:05:05 UTC https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2388330430 lolacleary7 https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2388338779 as my project is heading towards the direction of careful observation of how crossing the river has changed my perspective of it and myself I have found more concrete development of my project by working with a medium or through making. By doing this I am able to create a place for my work and thoughts to be presented. I was immediately drawn to book binding, the meticulous nature of it means you can create a really beautiful place for words and images to live as well as easily distorting the idea of what a book is supposed to look like to feel more personal. I can make a book to perfectly fit whatever work or research I want in it.

it was like walking down the river lea again after months. there's a lot of very specific imagery in this book some which i want to explain and some i don't. there is details in this that i know people i spent time with on the river bank may notice and there may be other people who spent time by the river lea and had separate experiences and could read things completely different.

the use of cows is an important one that shouldn't be explained but they serve the role as a watcher, there were cows close to the river lea and have served as a distant watcher in my art for some time.

using the binding of the book was important to me, some of the pages extending further and flowing into each other i hope give a sense of walking along through the book as you read it. you can flick through it or stretch it out as you read. ]]> 2023-01-23 12:03:09 UTC https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2453119611 aidan koch lolacleary7 https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2453139828 in terms of sequential artists i really like adrian koch, she works with moments, zooming in on details and seconds. it captures the feeling of a heavy moment so well, the little distractions you focus on to slightly escape when its happening become such strong images in memory which i think she captures really well]]> 2023-01-23 12:22:23 UTC https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2453139828 lolacleary7 https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2453144832 the dream like quality from the layering of ink, pencil and paint with all medium blurring at their edges gives a sense of impermanence to the landscapes and people she draws. as if if you look away they might disappear, and they do sometimes with large panels turning into a unidentifiable mix of colour and mark making, and entire panels clearing away to just have words. i also like how personal her work is without giving a full explanation of who she illustrates or what is happening you just get a string sense of moment which is a very human thing. her work feels like a moment she chose to suspend in time on its own pedestal and though we as the viewer cannot fully understand we understand that it must be given a certain amount of care ]]> 2023-01-23 12:27:39 UTC https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2453144832 mudlarking lolacleary7 https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2453155417 i followed Lara maiklems field guide for larking when i went mudlarking, her work was meticulous and careful and the book had sections for you to fill out yourself but once i was on the river Thames i stuck to collecting what interested me the most]]> 2023-01-23 12:39:00 UTC https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2453155417 necklaces and charms lolacleary7 https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2453268790 i used the pieces of pipe and shell and other found things with beads to make jewelry, the pipes worked easily as beads as they had a hole right through though others needed drilling]]> 2023-01-23 14:07:37 UTC https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2453268790 visual moodboard lolacleary7 https://padlet.com/lolacleary7/3dqsx0rbuhra00q5/wish/2453270871 1. portal drawings for river details i drew
