Blinkbonny Avenue and Everyday Life

Turtola, Niina; Vapaasalo, Tapio

Abstract

This artistic research is thematically interested in the practice of everyday life and in issues of the liberated book and page layout, book design and dialogue between text and image. The urgency of this node of the ‘liberated page’ explores shared interests and dialogues that are documented into discussions, emails, notebooks, exchanges of thinking and memories since 2010. The purpose of this research is to collect these thematic interests into a visual form of a research project. This means that the conventions of book, text design and layout are used as a platform for depicting artistic research in an open manner. Historically, the printed book is seen a closed and final as communication medium. It is unreachable, yet obvious, part of everyday life. Now the printed sheets are pages for a dialogue to take place and depictions of an ongoing trajectory and artistic research process. Thematically the object of research is multimodal. It is the printed page, images, and texts in it that is being created in a dialogical manner, but also linked to the everyday lives where these collected materials derive from.
