In this episode of Lost in Language Jessica talks to Hester Reeve. The invitation to Hester was to convey an aspect of Bohm’s concept of Artamovement. Bohm described Artamovement as the universal movement of fitting, and that to see what fits or does not fit, involves in the first instance, an unspecified feeling that something is wrong somewhere. As our conversation unfolds and stirs us, we explore feelings of what fits or does not fit, in the many experiences of being human.
Hester Reeve is Reader in Fine Art at Sheffield Hallam University and, linked to the ideas of David Bohm, a founding member of the Pari Holoflux experiments led by Lee Nichol. Composed of a considerable body of live art actions and associated drawings, sculptural objects and extended documentation experiments, her artworks function in co-relation to a complex, evolving array of conceptual priorities arrived at through extensive philosophical reading.
