plantsculpture

2002 - ongoing

Aside from the theoretical, ‘conceptual’ and aesthetic outcomes of this endeavour the impetus behind this experiment was a simple one: I wanted to know first hand what drove some people to be the ‘boss’ of others. To manipulate, bend and beat into shape a being. A living being. Working with clay, marble, paint, wood, bronze, words, steel, film et cetera are obvious materials but what about us? Us people, citizens, members of society. (It is a given that everyone is someone’s indentured labourer.)

Anyhow, I have been able to experience this.

“Christian Nerf adopts contemporary traumas with The Thing in Breathing, an installation in which a plant sculpture holds a conversation with a horn player [...] evoking the transformative potential of art - its ability literally to breathe life into inanimate objects. With talented young trumpeter Darren English in the role of the horn player, the work spans the disciplines of acoustic ecology, environmental and performance art, poetry, sculpture, installation and philosophy. It reminds us that beneath the surface of the commonplace something extraordinary lies waiting to be revealed.”

[A.N.B.]19.2. On a bad day - unprepared.

[A.N.B.]19.3. On a perfect day - already there.

[A.N.B.]18.1. Are minor events worth noting?

An event, as defined by Badiou, leaves the dynamics radically changed; the worthless becomes valuable and visa versa and a few other configurations.

Anyhow, the Event has major consequences.

Alain speaks of how we must not imagine we can institute a purely paraconsistent logic [yes and no] to our work… classical logic [yes or no] must be instituted on occasion to keep momentum. One has to say no [or yes] on occasion; if everything was allowed in [or out] it would bloat [or deflate] the thing thereby negating agility.

Minor events may or may not lead up to the [major] event, they are things within themselves. Let us look at these minor events, everyday crossroads that dramatically alter direction.

[A.N.B.]18.2. If we do not note these decisive moments are they a series of non events vs. if noted an eventful time?

[A.N.B.]9.1. snug feeling vs being?

[A.N.B.]9.2. agile being vs feeling?

[A.N.B.]8. Are misquotes less valuable than quotes?

[A.N.B.]7.1. ...attracted to what is deemed of no interest; it is occasionally the case that it is a suppressed thing that is wanting to talk but can’t find the words, often it proves to be of no interest other than some humour and or pain.

[A.N.B.]7.2. The point of philosophy is to start with something so simple as not to seem worth stating, and to end with something so paradoxical that no one will believe it.
