NSW Young Regional Artist Scholarship 2016

In April 2016 I was successful in my grant application for an exploration into digital media through a mentorship program in Copenhagen Denmark. The proposed project will be learning processing and generative design alongside CIID (Copenhagen Institute for Interaction design) masters graduate Owen Mcfadzen.

Using the principles which underpin drawing, I want to extend my practice to work between digital applications using programs that allow exploration into translating how I draw and recognise the patterns and nature of the systems put into place through memory. Throughout my practice I have used memory to draw and within that memory is a series of systems and patterns that create the marks I make. After looking into processing and generative design, I would like to use the opportunity to look further into my drawings and see what is repeated and get more of an understanding of the language I have created. With my background in print-media I would still like to have the physical object and form the relationship with the processed image to coincide with the experimentation process.

Upon arrival in Copenhagen I will work with Owen to identify a particular project that would enable me too explore these objectives and successfully translate what I'm creating. The links below are Owens website and the school associated.
