Revelation...

Something I wrote to someone today...

'Much more an observer than an instigator'.

Normally in my practice I will approach a scene as 'unintrusively' as possible. That basically means I won't move things, 'tidy' up or dress a scene in any way. This is not just a conceptual approach as it's also to do with respecting the space itself.

I much prefer the discovery process in the visitation.

This has, however, recently changed and has been a philosophical centre point of my component of our show at Kurb (June 10-29).

It's odd how a VERY minor 'thing' that I did has opened up a whole new world. The ideas of immediacy, a 'fake' decisive moment and drama are now making me dizzy.
