1. Sight into Site (Catalogue)
Thomas Heath
From Fabrica Research Centre
2023

Exploring the fragile relationship between Humans and the ‘Landscape’. The artist constructs a space using flour (taken from the Earth) by pressing the material into a perfect (15cmx20cmx9cm) rectangle. The arrangement and placement of the flour blocks was dictated by Tadao Ando’s architectural grid lines.

By questioning the fragility of landscape/memory and place/space, the viewer can explore the meaning of ‘Landscape’. Is it something to be seen, touched or simply remembered?

3. ‘The artist who swallowed the world’
Thomas Heath
From Fabrica Research Centre
2023

An ad to advertise Erwin Wurm's book 'The artist who swallowed the world' to the online community of Fabrica Research Centre.


Australian artist, Erwin Wurm's work captures a surreal and bizarre world of unexpected relationships and balance with everyday objects – striking and amusing, Wurm’s work makes you stop, think and become inquisitive to the world around you. 






4. Stigmata of the Past
Thomas Heath
From Fabrica Research Centre
2023

The physical features of a landscape bear the scars of its history, and these marks persist over time. A landscape is a repository of memories, and I can explore its past by examining its physical characteristics. 

The quote below, by M. Corajoud, highlights the idea that a landscape holds important clues about its past, and that by studying it, we can gain a deeper understanding of the history and culture of a place.)

"In the flesh of the landscape all the stigmata of the past are impressed and endured. Landscape is a memory and I can interrogate it". – M. Corajoud in B. Cillo, 2008, p. 87W.  


5. Truly, really, actually. [We Take Data]

Thomas Heath
From Fabrica Research Centre
2023

Using print to explore the visual expression of human interaction with man-made objects in response to a quote a Babette Mangolte’s film ‘The Sky On Location’. (1983)

“We take data and document where we are and what we do and what nature is doing. We accumulate photographs and records to compensate that sense of irremediable loss for the passing traveller.” – The Sky On Location (1983) dir. Babette Mangolte.



6. Truly, really, actually. [Documentation of Research]
Thomas Heath
From Fabrica Research Centre
2023

Truly, really, actually a name taken Marcel Broodthaers exhibition catalogue ‘Court Circuit’, is a collection text and artist references, from the likes of Hans-Peter Feldmann, Marcel Broodthaers and Chuck Berry. The poster which folded up into an A4 page was designed to inform a group of artist with what I had been researching.

Each coloured text block relates to a corresponding coloured outlined image on the reverse side of the A2 fold-out.




7. Untitled (Screenprint, 2021)This print was made using a digital collage built from a library of patterns and geometric shapes I created. I layered and arranged these elements to create a sense of movement, contrast, and tension within the composition.

Edition of 50
