Abstract

Rather like Barad’s scientists we, as artists, are part of the apparatus of the experiment. Effecting the agential cut by laying the paper down to start the work. Making a mark, the mark, which simultaneously creates and reveals. Yielding to the limitations and the revelation that comes with that act to find the marks that can be made. Sometimes something pokes through, interrupting. This process is about discovering how to get the most out of the apparatus; it is a dialogue that reveals possibility and 'being within' the journey of exploration, discovery, and revelation.
