Eamon Colman - Hollywood Series (part of the Thinking-in-movement body of work)
My interest grows out of a grounded observation having lived in and lived with the land, living in rural Co. Kilkenny in the south east of Ireland for the past 13 years. My day-to-day research utilizes walking as a research tool and this series comes from a time spent walking in Hollywood, Co. Wicklow. Whilst I am traversing across land by foot, I am also surveying the surrounding area, both near and far. This vantage point enables great distances to be viewed, extending the vanishing point on clear days to include many counties and on foggy days the point at which one cannot see beyond is a mere 10 ft.. The act of walking and looking is peppered with a desire for an ‘at oneness’ with nature, a slowing down to be ‘with’ and learn with nature rather than learn about it.
This is the springboard from which I have explored how the viewer’s eye can be drawn into the picture plane. Expanding the notion of how a three dimensional ‘walked’ experience is translated and reimagined onto a two dimensional picture plane. I have creatively researched this through the use of what I call double vision - ‘looking across’ as the reflective aspect of remembering the journey/walk/ place whilst ‘looking down’ opens up the embodied experience -the textures, colours and ‘mood’ of what’s underfoot.
Walking slowly is not a measure or matter of speed, it creates a space for hesitation which produces new modes of relating. The pace at which, I walk asks questions about what might happen if we could learn with the world, rather than about it. Thinking-in-movement infers that we become open to stimuli we cannot fully represent. This then fuels my imagination and is translated through paint - colour, shape, line and composition.
