Installation - Ann Mc Cormick with sound Installation from Urban Blau. 

Soundings / Echo

Mind Map City was very much influenced by my interest in the work of the colour field artist Richard Diebenkorn. I tried to enrich the work materially by using found objects from my environment and combining them with plains of colour. Flat plains broke into three dimensions yet remained flat. I was also influenced by the work of Kasimir Malewitsch in his radical reduction of space and form.

The city landscape of streets and architecture, it's open and closed spaces was the backbone of this project. 

The musician Martin Fonfara complemented the work with his playful sound installation.

Mind Map City

n the year 2000 I wandered around Dublin taking photographs along the quays of the river Liffey and in the dockland area. Using slide-film I was able to interact with the images in a more painterly way and use light and shadow to build the images up in layers. 

Annalivia refers to the river Liffey in the heart of Dublin and also a character in Joyce's Finnegans wake.

In 2010 I scanned the slides. The series is diveded into two categories – Structural and non-structural abstract. These are a selection of the structural images.

Mind Cloud Town  is an  installation project with the writer and sound artist Urban Blau.

The inspiration for the work is my experience of the urban environment. I am interested in the exploration of the relationship between painting and real space, between the urban environment and the perception of space; the ties between art and the environment, materials and context, art criticism and marketing.

In this Installation I am using simple materials with uniform shapes to compose a painting in time and space using shades of light, shadow and colour. I want to approach form and structure in a light playful meditative way.

Urban Blau´s Klang-installation is based on sounds that are found and taken from the urban environment. It adds another level of the senses to the installation work.
