This exegesis situates my work in the intertidal zone. In Australia the intertidal zone is a site of historic, cultural, and ecological significance. It is my argument that thinking intertidally attunes us to concepts of inbetweenness and interconnection. These concepts are further articulated in relation to contemporary understandings of nature as outlined in different ways by Timothy Morton and Jane Bennett. Contemporary artists Mark Dion and Fiona Hall both draw on museological representations of nature to critique taxonomic classificatory logics — their work informs my rejection of such perspectives. Considering art and politics in the intertidal zone, where boundaries between inside and outside, nature and culture are porous and shifting informs my discussion of artistic influences of my practice including Anne Hamilton, Jonathon Jones and Fiona Foley and Janet Laurence. My process driven approach to art making, drawing on recent understandings of nature, artists exploring ecological concerns and material concerns of making has informed my immersive installations of kinetic sculpture and drawings. These aim to provide a rich sense of the interconnection between people and nature informed by the diverse materiality of the intertidal zone.
