Echoes of evocations: sites in transformation.

The article brings the visual work of the author into dialogue with some stated propositions regarding sitedness, artistic ‘in-site’ versus innovative and divergent ways of seeing. While drawing on art, architecture, film and philosophy, the text evolves around issues relating to site-specific art, and in particular her ‘methodology’ of approaching ‘space-sites’ using a mixture of temporary object-formations and interventions which are photographically documented. While working with photography and materials found on-site there is a different experience emerging in relation to a given environment. This intimate world-building, which is not reducible to vision alone, can be called an insight in the form of an awakening or disruption of one's habitual sensitivities. This productive event occurs in response to the discrepancy between what is identifiable, such as a petal, and its unfamiliar (through the intervention) altered context. In the process of viewing the beholder is drawn into these different image worlds located between fact and fiction. Rather than being prescribed new models for seeing, the viewer is teased and engaged into examining the work and the world in an explorative way. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
