À propos
Artist Tim Knowles completed an intensive artist residency at the Inglewood Bird Sanctuary in 2018, where he studied the movements, activity, constant flux and shifting processes of the space and its inhabitants.
Using a GPS enabled tablet with detailed satellite imagery, the artist was able to plot the paths of birds, animals and people. Mapping movements and recording hundreds of tracks has resulted in a series of drawings which reveal the workings of the sanctuary, observing the various patterns of behaviour, relationships between wildlife and environment.
He will be speaking about how this work informed his contribution to the Inglewood Bird Sanctuary Restoration Project, influencing the routing of water channels, paths and his original design for a hybrid structure that is part log jam, part bridge and part bird blind.
