Alice Angus, co-director of Proboscis, is an artist inspired by rethinking concepts and perceptions of landscape and human relationships to the land. Over the last six years she has been creating a body of art work exploring concepts proximity and remoteness, technology and presence, against the lived experience and local knowledge of a place. With Proboscis her work combines artistic and curatorial and she is currently working on: ‘Lattice’ a project for the British Council’s Creative Cities initiative in East Asia; ‘Anarchaeology’ a new commission with Render at the University of Waterloo Canada, to ‘excavate’ stories and experiences in the Waterloo Region, ‘Snout’, a collaboration with inIVA (Institute for International Visual Arts, London) and researchers from Birkbeck College exploring relationships between the body, community and the environment; Topographies and Tales (2004-2007) a collaboration with Joyce Majiski investigating issues of landscape and identity in the North. Recent projects range from ‘Social Tapestries’ a 5 year research programme exploring the social and cultural benefits of local knowledge sharing enabled by new mobile technologies, ‘Navigating History’ a series of commissions in libraries and ‘Landscapes In Dialogue’ a web based series of video clips and essays inspired by a residency with Parks Canada.
Wherever will it be, i want you just read much more about this particular posting, thank you.
I’m creating a little concern. I can’t register your nourish.
Aw, this was a very quality post. Theoretically Id like to write like this too – taking time and real effort to create a really good post but so what can I only say I procrastinate alot and not appear to go done. My best wishes, Adelaida.
Hello, – found out about this blog by chance whilst drifting around the internet this evening, and happy that I did! I do like the page structure and colors, but I ought to point out that I’m having difficulty when it loads. I’m using iCab 4 internet browser for mac, and the header would not line up well. i am pretty sure I’ve applied an identical design on a customer’s internet site, but the menu seems alright on mine. I suspect the problem is with my browser & I’m assuming it’s about time to change!
With all the doggone snow we have gotten recently I am stuck indoors, fortunately there is the internet, thanks for giving me something to do.
