About this exposition

Traci Kelly and Rhiannon Jones Writing as object. Writing as materiality. Writing through the body. Writing the subject into being. A laboured breath, a subversive gesture, a consideration of materiality and difference are the urgent concerns of Traci Kelly and Rhiannon Jones as they write through the body. Resisting narrative and authorship they seek the preform and fractured modes of writing that adhere to a multivalent feminine. This entry is offered as a sharing of some of the documentation gathered from an emerging body of work-in-progress. There have been encounters with other artists and researchers during the two-month residency, including Terry Shave, who made Kick and Kiss in response to witnessing the collaboration. The artists have utilised this collaboration to destabilise language and expose its underlying structures. This project offers a feminine approach to writing, which often has a male primacy. The artists are interested in preform, sounds that do not yet make words and the performative quality of the body as both a written language and as a site of inscription. The installation of their residency documentation explores place and plays with the shifting roles of the readerly and the writerly, whether through body or physical spaces the work inhabits. The Drawing Board The Drawing Board is a space for handwritten performances that aims to turn a corridor into a destination and to return the walls of an old school building in Nottingham to their former use as a place of display. Curated by Michael Pinchbeck, The Drawing Board explores how we write, how we perform writing and how writing performs. All rights Kelly and Jones 2018
