As a multidisciplinary visual artist and printmaker living in a village on the west coast of Scotland, I’m trying to curate a sense of my own lived experience in my work. Through printmaking, photography, and drawing, I’m trying to build and sustain an archive documenting my personal experience in relation to site. My practice surrounds site visits, naturally these weave together into one, where memories or work produced overlap with different places creating an element of familiarity in the work. Through abstracting moments in time, I’m attempting to try and emulate feelings of haze or elusive recognition at different sites in my life, questioning what it means to feel attached to certain spaces and how the most mundane areas can have significance in the larger context of my everyday. Seen as connecting layers of time, past places merging with current, things seeming relatable but hazy at the same time. Through attempting to construct an entrance for the viewer to come into the work, I abstract drawings or photographs of sites. My practice is a record of trying to articulate chasing a fleeting feeling of familiarity or trying to capture the atmosphere of a site which is changing before me. As a printmaker, I’m creating etchings and exploring collaboration with sites through expanded print, viewing it in a literal and conceptual way, considering the methods of printing not unlike the impact the sites have printed on my lived experience. Despite my regular documentation, it’s beyond my control how they look or how they change over time, which is what I’m documenting in my practice. Hence why my work often looks quite elusive and abstracted, I’m trying to navigate documenting echoes of spaces. Curating an experience where the viewer can gain an understanding of not only myself, but the abstracted natural elements imprinted on my existence.
