Photographic Bodies/Metaphors/Pathology : Flesh and Bone/Text and Image

The image appears to be a page from an artist's or designer's sketchbook, featuring a mixed-media collage and handwritten notes. 

The content combines various materials like translucent colored film squares, opaque paper cutouts, and handwritten text.

Handwritten notes mention "Spatial Practices," "Jane Bennett," and "combination of somatic effects," suggesting an academic or artistic project exploring themes of space, philosophy, and sensory experience.

The collage technique involves assembling different forms and materials to create a new composition.

It is likely a preparatory page for a larger work, documenting research and ideas.

Spatial Bodies~Assemblages : Representations~Diagrams~Images~Photographic Documentation

Making : Blueprint, Photogram and Collage.

Assemblage/Garden Design : Architectural Plan/Victorian Corset.

Frameworks with Enclosures.

Of the mason's who built them, we can say that they both designed as they drew, and drew as they designed. But their designing, like their drawing, was a process of work, not a  project of the mind.

Assemblage~Reverberations from excavated land.







The beauty of the assemblage is that, since it lacks organization, it can draw into its body any number of disparate elements. The book itself can be an assemblage, but its status as an assemblage does not prevent it from containing assemblages within itself or entering into new assemblages with readers, libraries, bonfires, bookstores, etc.

Mesh/Material/Light, Cyanotype Process.

Cyanotype is a photographic printing process that produces a cyan-blue print. Engineers used the process well into the 20th century as a simple and low-cost process to produce copies of drawings, referred to as blueprints. The process uses two chemicals: ammonium iron(III) citrate and potassium ferricyanide.


The English scientist and astronomer Sir John Herschel discovered the procedure in 1842.[1] Though the process was developed by Herschel, he considered it as mainly a means of reproducing notes and diagrams, as in blueprints.[2] It was Anna Atkins who brought this to photography. She created a limited series of cyanotype books that documented ferns and other plant life from her extensive seaweed collection.[3] Atkins placed specimens directly onto coated paper, allowing the action of light to create a silhouette effect. By using this photogram process, Anna Atkins is regarded as the first female photographer.[4]
