TRANSDISCIPLINARY ART + ONE-OFF FASHION
Transdisciplinary Art
"...emergence of a new discipline transcending
the boundaries of disciplinary perspective...
It can be considered as the culmination of interdisciplinary efforts...
[that] has a wholism associated with it."
What is Transdisciplinary?
Jaya Ramchandani
"the
transdisciplinary artist blends all the pieces of knowledge and skill together
and
creates art that we cannot define through the canons
that
specify genres as we know them.
Art that goes beyond genre does not reveal the elements
from which it is made,
and
it is manifested as a homogeneous entity that exists independently;
it
goes across many disciplines, in order to reach a final destination."
What Does the Term
InterdisciplinaryArtist Imply?
Patina Lee for Widewalls
Transdisciplinary Art is the synthesization
of multiple disciplines

Automediality is a key component of my artistic practice.
Automediality is a form of autobiography through media,
in real time, shaped by the media outlets utilized
this journal is one of my media outlets
please see the Automediality & Me page for more information
thank you for following along with me on my journey
I spent the afternoon cutting up magazines to make collages. I started to play around with some of the pieces I cut out. I put this painting of a lion down on the chair as if I were putting it down while I put the nail in the wall to hang it on. I love that the painting was photographed at such an angle that it actually looks and feels as though it has been rested there for that purpose. There's nothing more I want to do with it. One thing my professor @nellkeyes taught me @scad is that play is an important part of an art practice. I never quite got it. For some odd reason, I get it now, today, during this pandemic. I understand that not every piece has to be a finished piece. I can just play.
Tips for Artists Under Quarantine #2:
be like @timwalkerstudio and keep notebooks and process books of your work.
Here is a page from one of Walker's notebooks from the @vamuseum installation, Wonderful Things. I am a huge Tim Walker fan and have collected tear sheets from @vogueitalia and @britishvogue since I first discovered his work many years ago. I was so thrilled to be able to attend this show on my way home from @charlotte.stocker 's Airbnb in Tintagel, Cornwall. It was a mind blowing show, and I wanted to take it all home with me. You can see more of the notebooks and videos in my Instagram Stories. Also in my Stories is a shot I took of the Tim Walker exhibit @michaelhoppengallery recommended to me by @hollytorious ♥️
isn't following your heart
about not caring
what other people say
to you, about you,
and/or
what they say is best for you?
isn't it about
trusting only yourself,
trusting only your feelings,
even if they fly in the face
of all appearances
to the contrary?
isn't it about
remaining true to yourself
no matter what?
damn right it is
