tidal boundaries 

action 19: figs & paper


the nineteenth in a sequence of environmentally responsive actions undertaken at Redleaf beach in Sydney's east over the course of a 4 month residency. 

method/practice/medium: paper, port jackson figs


process/score: set out to explore one of the major found elements in the makeshift beach studio; the bright yellow port jackson figs. Having pressed the figs in an earlier tidal boundaries action, now set out to use them in their hard state as bright yellow early figs. Take an existing paper element used in the studio and use it to array the yellow figs.
