Preservations
This is a new (2014-present) body of work which is involved in looking at how we remember and what we remember and the connections made between those memories and other types of recorded memory via history, artefact and other cultural representations eg. tourism posters, postcards, figurines etc. Preservations is an ongoing constantly reconfiguration of videos, objects, prints and paintings. This work came from The Selfie Drawing Project did on Facebook between 2013 and 2015. In that project there was a search for a way to just make drawings which had no high art motivation. Those drawings were a way of just thinking about how to draw different faces and persons and think about how to get a likeness while using very sparse materials and have people participate in that.
