In these works, the final figure is more evident. It is important to note that the horizontal string lines temporarily installed in the forest are only as high as I could reach without support; by adding a lower second line, a relation between the two linear elements is established and the reading as a plane suggested. While working with surveyor’s tape or twine recalls the yarn pieces by Fred Sandbeck, there is an essential difference. For one, Sandbeck worked primarily indoors, marking internal spaces, and used the support of walls, ceiling, and floor to suggest a direction for creating latent figures more geometric in their aspect. These outdoor marked interventions reread natural order by seeing within the existing order the possibility of linkages. Test interventions with string have followed two paths. The first established horizons delineated by string, and derived their presence from thin straight lines set in contrast to the irregular disposition of pine trees and the twisted forms of their branches. The second pursued the definition of a space by marking the relationships of the trunks, and their potential to cohere as the limits of an apse-like space within the greater distribution of the pines, birches, and spruce.&nbsp; <img width="2550" height="1667" width_o="2550" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/dade89eceb404f3924da4838b7d865d014645a31c87016768636048dc41f1429/measured-02.jpg" data-mid="146887606" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/dade89eceb404f3924da4838b7d865d014645a31c87016768636048dc41f1429/measured-02.jpg" /><img width="2550" height="1667" width_o="2550" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/136c48caee080cd9577f65f792f4f3a0a04bb27229d311cf33b15aaa58169370/Paired-02.jpg" data-mid="146887229" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/136c48caee080cd9577f65f792f4f3a0a04bb27229d311cf33b15aaa58169370/Paired-02.jpg" /> <img width="2550" height="1667" width_o="2550" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/9d0d01bdfd390598f16807b8ac61d2d2889d34ff7594c3e05d06507fd5896ce0/measured-03.jpg" data-mid="146890424" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/9d0d01bdfd390598f16807b8ac61d2d2889d34ff7594c3e05d06507fd5896ce0/measured-03.jpg" /><img width="2550" height="1667" width_o="2550" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/cd5256d3c6d7aabcfd38d287d0ff421b2567b96c16377b302ca69c47e8b62693/Paired-01.jpg" data-mid="146887230" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/cd5256d3c6d7aabcfd38d287d0ff421b2567b96c16377b302ca69c47e8b62693/Paired-01.jpg" /> https://alyssa-schwann.com/Crossing-Obliques-Korppoo-Finland-2022 Sat, 02 Jul 2022 09:12:18 +0000 Alyssa Schwann https://alyssa-schwann.com/Crossing-Obliques-Korppoo-Finland-2022 <img width="2550" height="1667" width_o="2550" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4cf711723e7d53cfac2d31e73735901abbc03512919244763e66f3d50e098fa7/obliques-05.jpg" data-mid="146890318" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4cf711723e7d53cfac2d31e73735901abbc03512919244763e66f3d50e098fa7/obliques-05.jpg" /> Forest Markings Tests Safe Crossing for White Tail Deer / Obliques Location: Korppoo, Finland Date: June 2022 Media: Forest, masonry string, survey flagsDimensions: Various Granting Agency: Archipelago Art Residency in Korpo (AARK) In tandem with the string pieces, studies on Korppoo turned to installations whose first act is clearing and cleaning, and thereafter uncovering. I selected sites despoiled by logging operations and worked with the trunks of trees felled but left in place. In Safe Crossing for Whitetail Deer I removed accumulations of moss, dirt, twigs, and organic debris from a logging road to create figures that seen in plan would read as four rectangles. Their order on site is less clear, however, due to the depth of the accumulated organic matter and the contour of the rock surfaces. As a cluster the individual rectangles cohere as a figure set in opposition to the axis of the road, with a very distant recall of the white markings of crosswalks for priority crossings of streets. Unlike the string pieces, these removals will remain until natural processes of precipitation, wind, and growth will reclaim them. The second installation integrates aspects of clearance with the spatial marking effected by the string. The site, also in a logged forest zone, was covered with the needles, branches and trunks left by tree felling, left one assumes to rot and (possibly) support regrowth. Until that day, the land will appear desolate. Clearing the site of this material, and taking the ground back to its basic contour, revealed the presence of cut trees that had fallen as if a giant version of a game of pick-up-sticks. Tree stumps played counterpoint to tree trunks. One could have left work on the site at this stage as a counterpoint to the patter of trees left vertical. But once again using string, the lines of the trunks were extended in space to conjoin in selected points among them. In addition, the intersections of two trunks were lashed with the string to underscore the points at which the linear forms of two or more trunks intersected in a field that could be plotted—and given attention by the lashings.&nbsp; <img width="2550" height="1667" width_o="2550" height_o="1667"

twineDimensions: 14’ length, 1’5” widthGranting Agency: Archipelago Art Residency in Korpo (AARK) Nurse logs are fallen trees that over time, as they deteriorate, come to serve as habitat for animals, insects, and even the growth of new plants, whether of the same species or others that the putrefying mass of the log now has come to “nurse.” In this work the “logs” are constructed. Using sheets of loose-weave burlap I created loose cylinders filled with soil, fertilizer, and seeds. These are bound together with twine and rope to create a log like form. In its initial form, the straight lines of the nurse logs are used to play against the irregular distribution of the tree trunks, their horizontals playing against their verticals. Though the test on Korppoo was installed mid-month and the full result will remain unknown, wildflowers can be seen emerging within the second week.

How might nature serve as a co-creator and, over time, inseparable from the initial artistic intervention? &nbsp; Evan Tremblay, a Métis artist and landscape designer, is collaborator and provocateur in the ongoing development of the study. Based in Winnipeg, his separate yet cojoined work (also supported by the CCA) explores “a respectful and ritualized engagement with the surrounding forest” resulting in the “genesis of artistic intention, guiding the development of interactive video-art as externalized connection”.&nbsp; [Note: Regional Park access was granted through a special permit.] <img width="4050" height="2700"

marking]Location: Burnaby, BC, CanadaDate: May 13–May 30, 2023Media: ParacordDimesnions: 15’ length, 15’ widthCommissioned by: City of Burnaby for the “Burnaby Blooms” Festival Nurse logs are fallen trees that over time, as they deteriorate, come to serve as habitat for animals, insects, and even the growth of new plants, whether of the same species or others that the putrefying mass of the log now has come to “nurse.” In this work the “logs” are constructed for the Burnaby Blooms Festival, planted with grass and wildflowers. Selected areas of existing grass are cleared and seeded with wildflowers.&nbsp; High Strung is the first work of the Forest Markings studies outside of a forest environment. Here at Deer Lake, the work uses the branching pattern of three birch trees as points of connection to each other and the topograhy resulting in straight lines “drawn” within the tree cluster.&nbsp; <img width="2550" height="1667" width_o="2550" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f22ba6e5c7bf90f72ec77d943f85d289cffe017ea3b22a06e3183572691c2744/convoy-04.jpg" data-mid="178932955" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f22ba6e5c7bf90f72ec77d943f85d289cffe017ea3b22a06e3183572691c2744/convoy-04.jpg" /><img width="2550" height="1667" width_o="2550" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8b382864d0a41ea39177ae0499b7d44cbcb7244d18bb1e07a3184e3da97f5c02/convoy-02.jpg" data-mid="178932812" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/8b382864d0a41ea39177ae0499b7d44cbcb7244d18bb1e07a3184e3da97f5c02/convoy-02.jpg" /><img width="2550" height="1667" width_o="2550" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c35a305984ed8f1958e5409896e5873f6f9f2299e51e234b3f1c99db02c6eafd/high-strung-03.jpg" data-mid="178933110" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c35a305984ed8f1958e5409896e5873f6f9f2299e51e234b3f1c99db02c6eafd/high-strung-03.jpg" /><img width="2550" height="1667" width_o="2550" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/831e08f53b514b534ca816e2e94bf330b355646958b6332c98ffb1894b30998c/high-strung-01.jpg" data-mid="178933107" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/831e08f53b514b534ca816e2e94bf330b355646958b6332c98ffb1894b30998c/high-strung-01.jpg" /> <img width="2550" height="1667" width_o="2550" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4b2d49e2d1fd0111e7acacc18dc14923692c98550c704f7351acc1aabe4db85f/convoy-03.jpg" data-mid="178932848" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4b2d49e2d1fd0111e7acacc18dc14923692c98550c704f7351acc1aabe4db85f/convoy-03.jpg" /><img width="2550" height="1667" width_o="2550" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/833b5a2da4ac205f2992071bba6da24f3885d7bf222390df6569cf4d0c445575/convoy-05.jpg" data-mid="178933046" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/833b5a2da4ac205f2992071bba6da24f3885d7bf222390df6569cf4d0c445575/convoy-05.jpg" /><img width="2550" height="1667" width_o="2550" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/84c7bc86c6e52cc5b7804813036ab934d6adf1ea787bf053be9cc2685c2d774f/high-strung-05.jpg" data-mid="178933111" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/84c7bc86c6e52cc5b7804813036ab934d6adf1ea787bf053be9cc2685c2d774f/high-strung-05.jpg" /><img width="2550" height="1667" width_o="2550" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d44e281bc656be7f878dd43001338e0a2ddc2e0ec93a10375ba5c1fc80f3a4ed/high-strung-02.jpg" data-mid="178933108" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/d44e281bc656be7f878dd43001338e0a2ddc2e0ec93a10375ba5c1fc80f3a4ed/high-strung-02.jpg" /> <img width="2550" height="1667" width_o="2550" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c54995d03f0bbfa8719cd090a11ad1b8924c54bb273a02b3a77ece9d88e1e6f1/convoy-06.jpg" data-mid="178933047" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c54995d03f0bbfa8719cd090a11ad1b8924c54bb273a02b3a77ece9d88e1e6f1/convoy-06.jpg" /><img width="2550" height="1667" width_o="2550" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/54014b1740dfa8255a9315f3d9a4924eb4e2aaa279f8689984cbe13df82bfe9b/convoy-08.jpg" data-mid="182884684" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/54014b1740dfa8255a9315f3d9a4924eb4e2aaa279f8689984cbe13df82bfe9b/convoy-08.jpg" /> https://alyssa-schwann.com/Harrison-Festival-of-the-Arts Sat, 03 Jun 2023 01:20:59 +0000 Alyssa Schwann https://alyssa-schwann.com/Harrison-Festival-of-the-Arts <img width="2550" height="1667" width_o="2550" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/7ff6ada4e4660cbdda9543f663b8f05beaa9857de2e1a5afc42ecbfe4d13d98c/watching-01.jpg" data-mid="180901790" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/7ff6ada4e4660cbdda9543f663b8f05beaa9857de2e1a5afc42ecbfe4d13d98c/watching-01.jpg" /><img width="2550" height="2533" width_o="2550" height_o="2533" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/3378d0c6b072b8275837fb31747b961243d8b174b371416ce641b8877d1bda06/DESCRIPTIONS.jpg" data-mid="182607190" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/3378d0c6b072b8275837fb31747b961243d8b174b371416ce641b8877d1bda06/DESCRIPTIONS.jpg" /> Forest Markings: a series of connected lines&nbsp;

Despite reverence for the beauty of the place, its natural resources have been stripped during periods of intensive logging, mining, and development. Forest Markings&nbsp;continues an ongoing study of the role forests play in recovering and renewing an endangered relationship with nature. They reflect on the loss of plant and animal species, the altering of systems on multiple scales, and the effects of our actions on well-being, culture, and language. Identity and community were once linked to the land and natural systems, yet we have experienced an extinction of knowledge with every generation as our baseline of understanding the world around us shifts. Forests play a central role in rebuilding connections to land and place. Several Forest Markings were installed at key locations in the village and its surrounding Coastal Western Hemlock forest. These “drawings” in three-dimensions combine academic ecological studies with primary experience in the forest and intertwine two interpretations of the word. First, they draw—or abstract—their order from the positions of the trees on the sites; and second, they engage the forest with taut lines of string that resemble lines drawn on paper. Although the approach is consistent, the dimensions and configurations of the strings respond to the shape, arrangement, and spacing of trees, and their branches and stumps. The spatial paracord (string) drawings are akin to rapid sketches. They are made in a few hours, photographed, and then dismantled, with the only trace of their existence remaining in pixels. I enter the landscape with no preconception of what will result from being there, nor how on an emotional level I will leave. Slowly, and with each subsequent installation, I realize the works are simultaneously a form of exchange and an apology. The installed drawings outside of the Ranger Station Gallery is an attempt to conjoin the temporary pieces. The actions and reactions involved in these various studies remind me that although nature long ago made the first move, we decide what follows: do we protect, or control and possibly destroy? Nature continues to respond even if we have eradicated the possibility of true dialogue. The Forest Markings reflect my re-learning to connect to land and place; it uses drawing as an act of reciprocity. Despite any formal beauty that may or may not result, for me the drawings are ultimately about about invoking a deeper connection to land and place. <img width="2550" height="1667" width_o="2550"
