A Field of Interconnected Realities

'A field of interconnected realities' is a performative installation consisting of live drawing re-enacting sections of the Semaine de Bonte book, leading to the production of an artist's publication.

Two artists in different locations collaborate through webcam in the development of an interconnected drawing inspired in revised bio-tech versions of Max Ernst's 1934 collages. Each session is performed live, mixing hand drawing with the use of sketch-a-graph, a machine that can both enlarge and reduce an image whilst copying it. The drawing performance, featuring a collaboration with artist Maria Lusitano (Malmo, Sweden), is networked with webcams and streamed live on the net and projected at QE2 Square.

After the performance the audience will be invited to participate and experiment drawing using the sketch-o-graph. Paula will do one live drawing every day for five days and from these live drawing sessions will be generated the material for a revised 'semaine de bonte' artists book.

This event is part of Living Room, on from 9 to 17 April, which brings together a talented group of local and international artists and choreographers in a curated programme around the theme; “A Week of Goodness”.
