Thursday 4th July a.m Conference presentation extract: Immanuel Kant, I Can – Catrin Webster The journey form (Bourriaud 2009) has been a central structure within the speaker’s painting practice since the late 1980s. Most recently motor biking has become a way to experience ‘landscape’ and is at the core of her current work, Park and Ride, and formed a major part of her practice-based PhD Intimate Distance (2010). In this presentation, she will explore the relationship between movement, embodiment, the architecture of the road and painting. The performed line, rhythm and repetition (Lefebvre 1992) share aesthetics common to both practices, which will be discussed along with notions of the sublime from a female perspective and the contemporary landscape. This presentation will be illustrated with paintings from two specific motorbike journeys: a loop repeated 100 times and a ride to Rome, made on the speaker’s Hornet 650 and 900.
