Observation was the method and tempo A slow, attentive, female, regenerative practice
repeat return
no conclusion purely observation looked
to draw
listened
to draw
collected what could be held
to draw
and what could not sound
became line noticing redirected line
conversation voice thinking noted line
gestures uttered insistent
language spoke silences
drawing followed
Rain fell still
to draw
experience walked questions sat each act
to draw
language hovered at the edges of thought evident
thresholds appeared between gaps body
and ground tracing liminal spaces again
and again
materials spoke in dialects hands listened
to draw
systems into being ways of knowing repeated
shifted carried
to pick to pack to deliver to grow to dig land
something back
to weed to plant to collect to transform to offer
cyclical attention
returning staying a practice moving slowly
enough for the world to enter leaving a trace
in time
Falls Farm residency
revealed regenerative identity
to draw from
and
to draw
