Trailing – using a starting point of interest to inform your own database and knowledge of professional practice.
Trail
To follow the traces or scent of, as in hunting; track.
To follow the course taken by; pursue: trail a fugitive.
To extend, grow.
To walk or proceed with.
A marked or beaten path.
An overland route
A mark, trace, course, or path left by a moving body.
The scent of a person or animal.
Something that is drawn along.
Researching – as a professional practice tool:
Galleries – what are the gallery connections, where are they located, what type of artists do they represent? Is this relevant to me? Do I want to circulate this info – is it useful to someone else (myspace/ facebook/ blog)
Organisations – what connections has this artist made with institutions
Web resources – on your search what else is relevant to you? Do this trail work to inform your practice. What can you find that adds to the development of a sound knowledge base over the coming years.
The orientation of the artist – what movements, agency, orientation, theoretical and geographically are of interest.
Ways of storing and retrieving information – we will build on this.
