EP51: Tania Lou Smith (DrawSpace)

Conversation with walking-artist and curator MELINDA HUNT talking about the group exhibition WALK WITH ME, taking place at Drawspace in Sydney from 28 November to 22 December 2024.

WALK WITH ME gathers nine local and international artists-researchers who utilise walking as part of their practice, encountering and mapping the walking sites and terrains through the medium of drawing. These drawings are not only reflective of the sites seen, but also the sites felt or experienced through the multisensory phenomena and the biodynamics of the walking body. 

Some of the projects included in the exhibition also foreground responses to habitat loss and species extinction, connection with urban ecologies, and the colonial project.

EP68: Melinda Hunt (WALK WITH ME, Drawspace)

Conversation with performance artist Alan Schacher who works across the terrain of dance and installation, with an interest in architectural experiences and the performativity of public space. His performances “attempt to eke out the essence of site, materials and objects in relation to and with the performer’s body, the situation, and memory of place.”

From Friday 27th to Sunday 29th of December, Alan will take a performative drawing residency at Drawspace gallery in Enmore. The project is titled CHASING SHADOWS and in this residency, Alan will capture the outlines of shadows and reflections as they fall onto and into the DRAW space.
