About this exposition

Operating at the intersection of fine art walking practice, psychogeography, critical animal studies and ecology, the practice of Deep Canine Topography seeks to reframe the humble act of the ‘walkies’ as a co-authored act of ‘making’ or ‘performing’ together. As part of the practice based element of my PhD thesis, Deep Canine Topography, this 11 min video and musical composition is built around series of urban walks and utilises rhythms and repetition of breathing, walking, traffic and more than human encounters, including chance encounters with winged beasts. It explores the rhythms of nature and the human -canine hybrid body as a compositional strategy. A Version of the work with the title 'Little Gestures" was also publicly exhibited at Two Queen Gallery, in October/November 2020, and featured geolocated sound walk which could be accessed via the Echoes Sound Walk app, on approach to the gallery. Clicking on the round MAP circle will take you to the central exposition of my PhD: Deep Canine Topography.
