Arts Council Wales - Stabilisation Fund

Trackways

I’m delighted to have received funding from The Arts Council of Wales as part of their stabilisation fund.

This will allow me to begin a new period of research into the theme of Trackways, in relation to our perception of time and place.

'The eye is enticed by a path, and the mind's eye also. The imagination cannot help but pursue a line in the land - onwards in space, but also backwards in time to the histories of a route and its previous followers.' The Old ways, Robert Macfarlane, 2012

I feel a similar connection to the past, walking along these well-trodden paths, as I do when examining certain objects. Why do some paths and objects offer us these experiences? By examining this theme I hope to generate new ways of thinking and develop a greater understanding of how I read and make objects.
