Landscape and
thinking errors in making.
Jan-March 2015
S1.
Claire de Mortimer-Griffin

M(art) Part Time. Year 1b.
My current concern is with making.
The state of making, of being either listening to the
next step of making
or in the
process of making
Or the
thinking about making,
And the observation of making.
Especially the errors when I make a tyrannical piece
something which
over whelms me because I have decided what
IT SHOULD BE or what I SHOULD BE.
Or my ridgity. My pride. My fear.
My obedience. My disobedience.
Yes: My stubbornness.
My determination.
(Referring to Adam Chodzkos performance in Gravity on the 29th Nov. 2012)
Simply; when I have failed to listen to it, to myself, to
others, to the materials and the unfolding subject.
Two Canvases 2x1.2m
One previously used.
The other prepared
but not used.
White household gloss over
canvas, Thinned with White
spirit.
It is important for me to start
a painting with this reference
to material use in domestic
painting.
I use domestic brushes,
mostly second hand brushes,
old peanut butter and honey
glass jars, small tins of cat
food and rags made from old
cotton or silk clothes, and
makeup sponges from
Superdrug.

My current concern is with making, and the
success and failure of making.
I see the errors in making as analogous to the
thinking errors in making medical diagnosis
and problem solving.
More broadly, I see that the same
errors are made in ones own self governance.

Anchoring bias  locking on to a diagnosis
(image/work) too soon and failing to adjust to
new information (as seen, or implied they
materials, or space, or light.)

Dear Claire
Could you please move your work out of the
half of the room designated for PhD students
and into the MA part of the room (the rear
half). This needs to be done ASAP.
Also paint fumes have been building up in the
space making it hard for other to work in there
(and not good for you either). Is it possible to
open the windows while you are there?
Best wishes
Becky

Diagnosis (work/image) momentum 
accepting a previous diagnosis (decision)
without applying sufficient skepticism. (not
listening and question the work/image at that
stage. Going with it, but not really going with
it.)
Mountain2015

Mountain2015
Premature closure  similar to confirmation
bias, but more like jumping to a conclusion (of
what it will be or become. It is this not that.)
Mountain2015
Search-satisfying bias  A eureka moment
that stops all further
thought on the matter. Deciding that the
work/image is finished because I say it is. As if
saying Ive done this( predefined) work and
now it IS finished. When really its not, the
problems have more been resolved. I dont
like it and dont want to look at it.
4. Unknown Area (Quadrant 4)
This last quadrant represents things that are unknown
by you, and are unknown by others.
1. Open Area (Quadrant 1)
This quadrant represents the things that you know about
yourself, and the things that others know about you. This
includes your behavior, knowledge, skills, attitudes, and
"public" history.
2. Blind Area (Quadrant 2)
This quadrant represents things about you that you aren't
aware of, but that are known by others.
3. Hidden Area (Quadrant 3)
This quadrant represents things that you know
about yourself, but that others don't know.
This can include simple
information that you do not
know, or it can involve deep
issues (for example, feelings
of inadequacy, incompetence,
unworthiness, or rejection),
which are often difficult for
individuals to face directly,
and yet can be seen by others.

Blind Area (Quadrant 2)
This quadrant represents things about you that you aren't aware of, but
that are known by others.

Hidden Area (Quadrant 3)
This quadrant represents things that you know about yourself, but that
others don't know.
My acuity. Framing: Reframing. Object too big , too not nice, way to
dominate on the wall. Image fights between narrative and freedom, it
does not invite.

Cluine Reid in Transmission, March 2015.
Collages/Images happen by accident. We are always dealing
with mass and multiplicity from inside the complexity verses
making a decision for the best. Always inside a collection of
amti electi erials (cant say what they will be in advance.)
where the value and the art object anti-elect in a hieratical
view at work in an expanded experience, more though space.
All images are potentially representative; all space working in
relation to all images/collections.
Not privileging the image by giving it a frame, but putting the
image on the wall. Thus confirming its 2D qualities.

Ones practice can become more deep
by allowing art and life to mix.
The success of the art work lies not in its
monetary value but in the understanding that
is gain through the process of making.

Non monetized based cultural capital as a
deliberate curatorial statement in collecting
only the used and broken.
