Here are a selection of my poetic writings and drawings towards the creation of Flight is a Waltz - Puppet Flutter. 2014 - 2016 This was a collaboration between myself and Dominic Harris. The wings of a butterfly are much like a hand they are hands gripping the air. The butterfly moves allot like a wave rather than a straight up and down movement the back wings articulate from a different point. The butterfly is principally of a liquid nature. (1st February 2014) Remembering that this is an artistic response. Remembering Klee and the one which is made by an artist. Find the essential and real within this. (1st February 2014) Here the movement skeleton becomes virtual -but as a driving movement principle which does not potentially rely on its exact physical existence. (the physical existence is the tricky part) (3rd September 2014) The chaotic element is important (10th October 2014) Please and now for a simple solution (16th October 2014) Will I recognise the solution when it appears. My issues the mechanical deviation from the referent. Simple must also equate to robust. (16th October 2014) In a way the creation of the butterfly total should be an essential memory of a butterfly. To capture and then to bring this back to life. What do we find. (20th October 2014) Working on creating the brass functional space frame. Don’t be afraid to rough out turn idea fear into solid innovation. (6th April 2015) Another inaccuracy apparent wasted 1 ½ day not so. accuracy as like any skill require(s) patient practice. there is a poetic in this accuracy I must move towards. From a place of stasis or from a place of stillness. (4th May 2014) Also clumsy - how to build this in chance mistake then rhythmic catch like cacophony melted into rhythm and back. (18th May 2015) The mechanism can be any shapes between the points expressive potential (11th June 2015) The constant play off between the requirements for strength and the significant limitations on space crop up in relation to the machining of the legs in this case. (12th June 2015) The centre moves within with the articulation (one thing this may do is to give a breathing effect). (19th June 2015) Here I am nervous towards putting it all together praying that there is the grace within what I have made to move freely and dedicating my labour to all that is true and all that moves in truth (1st September 2015) The head carries the reflection and window towards the soul. (10th September 2015) (Feeling to become this How to become this How if realism wasn’t the primary concern. One amongst equals. What can be expressed outside of realism, representation and the figurative portrayal even abstracted with puppetry? This journey is interesting. where will this take me and us collectively.
