Bonneau-Knight Collective

Based in central Québec, Canada on the traditional territory of the W8banaki Nation, the Ndakina, Bonneau-Knight Collective is Isabelle Bonneau, originally from Lac-St-Jean QC and Emily Knight, originally from St. John’s NL, who are dedicated to a joint practice since 2016. Walking artists intimately bound to landscape and geography, Bonneau-Knight’s practice considers body-time-place interconnectedness, articulated through drawing in its most fundamental form – the line – using various media. Bonneau-Knight favor low-tech methods based on slowness, repetition, and seriality. At the heart of their approach is a fully collaborative process; the resulting work is dependent on this shared space. Their open approach frequently includes public participation whereby the participant becomes part of the artwork in a relationship of mutual trust.

lonning, lonnin

Cumbrian dialect term for ‘lane’ – but a quite specific lane. Lonnings are usually about half a mile long, low level and often with a farm at the end. Many have specific names known only to the local villagers. Hence, Bluebottle Lonning, Lovers Lonning, Fat Lonning, Thin Lonning, Squeezy Gut Lonning or Dynamite Lonning. In the north-east the spelling is lonnin and seems to refer more to an alley than a country lane. The Scottish equivalent is ‘loan’.
