Research residency: LEER (Landscape, Ecology & Environment Research 2020/2021, Leitrim Sculpture Centre, Ireland

This text is underpinned by my current PhD practice-led research which examines if drawing has the capacity to record the ‘emotional vibrations’ of a site’s atmosphere which can act as an active agent and co-creator of the drawings. Situated within contemporary drawing, the research draws from practitioner-researcher Deborah Harty’s premise that ‘drawing is phenomenology’ (Harty 2009). Based on Harty’s research, the processes of drawing in-situ and site-responsive drawing act as devices for perceiving and recording the hidden felt aspects of a site. Through my tacit and material knowledge and my “pathic sense and emotive modality of knowing”, the site-responsive drawing presents the moment of withdrawal and bears witness to the act of ‘being there’ or, I am, to quote Harty, “situated, a mark inhabiting space and time, an embodied blot.” (Harty 2015, 51)
