Tom

By  Simon Woolham 2016
Artist-in-Residence at Digital Artist Residency SPACE//PLACE Residency == Mon 13th June – Sun 24th July 2016== At the core Simon Woolham’s practice is the collaborative exploration and encouragement of hidden human details, collective, shared histories, stories associated with belonging and the relationships to specific places and spaces, providing a voice to often unheard narrative. Woolham explores the realms between fact and fiction in narrative through both a studio based, and collaborative practice, an expanded notion of drawing through writing, Biro drawings, walking, online platforms, performance and film. Whilst in residence, Woolham will work on a project called ‘Digital Route’. The ‘Digital Route’ is a virtual and psychological collaborative residency with DAR co-walkers around sites and spaces, manifested through a virtual process that explores and senses human details around sites. The virtual re-enacted film 'Tom' can be viewed at: https://vimeo.com/171762892
