Memory corrosion
The first canvas captures the initial stages of memory corrosion, where fragmented recollections intertwine with the act of walking. Here, blurred images and disjointed pathways symbolize the fleeting nature of memory as one navigates through the labyrinth of the mind. In the second canvas, wandering takes center stage as memories meander through subconscious landscapes. Tangled brushstrokes and obscured landmarks evoke the sensation of drifting aimlessly, mirroring the unpredictable nature of memory recall. The final canvas embodies letting go as memories dissolve into ethereal landscapes of abstraction. Fading colors and fading contours signify the gradual release of attachment to the past, allowing space for new experiences and narratives to emerge.

WOOLGATHERING: walking the water’s edge (remote)
The walking bodymind is a dancing body. As in dance, prolonged repetitive movement can hold the body in a transitional state at the edge of consciousness, in a hypnagogic-like state of lucid questioning, insights, and enhanced creativity. The walking bodymind is a falling forward body, a rolling body, a transitioning body, a questioning body, a

writethemap
The website "Write the Map" is a creative project that explores the intersections of writing and place through the practice of walking. It documents how literary texts and geographic locations influence one another, highlighting the spatial dimensions of narrative and authorship. The site features essays, maps, and visual materials that examine the relationship between landscapes, urban environments, and the act of writing, situating literary production within specific cultural and geographical contexts.
The project also engages with themes of cultural geography by considering how walking serves as both a method of inquiry and a form of artistic expression. It brings attention to how movement through space can shape literary imagination and create new modes of storytelling. Through various contributions and archival materials, "Write the Map" offers insights into how physical journeys and textual narratives reciprocally inform each other, framing walking as a durational and spatially aware creative practice.

THE LRM
The LRM is an organization focused on the documentation, preservation, and exploration of ephemeral and site-specific artworks, particularly those that intersect with cultural geography and public space. It functions as an archival platform that collects and curates research materials on walking-based art practices, environmental interventions, and other performative actions that engage with landscapes and urban environments. The LRM emphasizes the historical and contemporary significance of these practices by providing detailed records, artist interviews, critical essays, and visual documentation.
The platform serves as a resource for scholars, artists, and researchers interested in the ways art interacts with geographic and social contexts. Through its extensive archive, The LRM highlights the intersection of art, geography, and anthropology, underscoring how walking and movement in space can operate as a form of artistic inquiry and cultural critique. The collection includes a range of artworks that challenge traditional gallery spaces, focusing instead on the dynamic and temporal qualities of art situated in physical environments.
