With the poor air quality and blowing my nose ever 10 minutes, today was a good day for staying indoors.<\/span><\/span> <span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">It was spent writing up the journal, researching the history of the local area and thinking about new directions for developing work. I feel that I am leaving behind the single descriptor of \u2018sculpture\u2019 or \u2018sculptor\u2019 and more often describing myself as \u2018multi-disciplinary\u2019. I find this is a more comfortable \u2018label\u2019, as it avoids me having to always answer the question \u2018what materials do you work with\u2019 when telling someone that I work in sculpture. It\u2019s no secret that I have a strong interest in multi-media, having presented video installations for both my undergraduate and postgraduate shows. I was put off for a while after finishing postgraduate study because I created a single channel edit of the 5 channel postgraduate final piece video installation and submitted this to about a dozen short film festivals around the world.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n<div><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/div>\r\n<div><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Unfortunately it didn\u2019t get selected for any of them and taught me a lesson in the difference between \u2018film making\u2019 and \u2018artists films\u2019, in the sense that one is quite un-structured (artists films) and the other is structured (film making). These days we have a lot more descriptors for artists films and have moved on from the \u2018video art\u2019 label. Work is described as \u2018moving image work\u2019, a one size fits all description really. The one thing that I do really enjoy is watching moving image work whenever I visit an exhibition. It takes me somewhere else that a static piece of work i.e. painting or sculpture can\u2019t take me.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\r\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\r\n<div><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">I made a very simple sketch showing the space with 3 projectors:<\/span><\/div>\r\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\r\n<div>\u00a0 <img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-4237\" src=\"https:\/\/alanrutherford.co.uk\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_5599-300x209.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 469px) 100vw, 469px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alanrutherford.co.uk\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_5599-300x209.jpg 300w, https:\/\/alanrutherford.co.uk\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_5599-1024x713.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/alanrutherford.co.uk\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_5599-768x535.jpg 768w, https:\/\/alanrutherford.co.uk\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_5599-1536x1069.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/alanrutherford.co.uk\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_5599-2048x1426.jpg 2048w\" alt=\"\" width=\"469\" height=\"327\" \/><\/div>\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/alanrutherford.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4236"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/alanrutherford.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/alanrutherford.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alanrutherford.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alanrutherford.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4236"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/alanrutherford.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4236\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4240,"href":"https:\/\/alanrutherford.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4236\/revisions\/4240"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/alanrutherford.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4236"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alanrutherford.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4236"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alanrutherford.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4236"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
