Walking Books – Sharyn O’Mara
Sharyn O’Mara has a predilection for the line. All though she doesn’t explain the process behind the works the Walking Drawings made on route during her outdoor preambles appear to be seismographic and psychogeographic representations of movement, in each there is a direction of jagged flow. It’s as if a GPS device was recording location down to each individual footstep. Her Walking Books open up to reveal possible paths and roads taken – we are reminded of the seismographic drawings of Rod McLaren.
