A discussion that might revolve around the poetics of place, how inspiration might be received from particular locations, gardens and anti-gardens, nature excluded from architectural space, hidden or buried rivers.<\/p>\n
Andrew Sneddon<\/a> is a Scottish artist living and working in the UK. He recently completed his doctorate, Confusions of meaning in the concept of place: An investigation into the role place occupies in influencing the production and reception of the artwork<\/em>. His research interests focus on exploring the complex engagement with ideas surrounding place. He makes site-responsive works that are installed covertly and explore the relations between people and place with specific attention to traces of cultural memory. He is interested in the habitat and signatures of place and how they are encoded in the material forms of the commonplace.<\/p>\n Zo\u00eb Skoulding<\/a> is a poet, critic, and translator. Her collections of poetry include The Mirror Trade<\/em> (Seren, 2004); Remains of a Future City<\/em> (Seren, 2008), longlisted for Wales Book of the Year; The Museum of Disappearing Sounds<\/em> (Seren, 2013), shortlisted for the Ted Hughes Award for New Work in Poetry; and Teint: For the Bi\u00e8vre<\/em> (Hafan Books, 2016). She has published translations of the Luxembourgish poet Jean Portante, In Reality: Selected Poems<\/em> (Seren, 2013), and with him has co-translated Jerome Rothenberg into French. Her own poems have been translated into over thirty languages. Her monograph Contemporary Women\u2019s Poetry and Urban Space: Experimental Cities<\/em> was published by Palgrave Macmillan in 2013, and she was editor of the international quarterly Poetry Wales 2008\u201314. She is Reader in the School of Languages, Literatures and Linguistics at Bangor University. From 2017 to 2018 she co-directed the AHRC network Poetry in Expanded Translation. In 2018 she was a recipient of the Cholmondeley Award from the Society of Authors for her contribution to poetry.<\/p>\n Transmission<\/em><\/strong>: <\/em><\/strong>Andrew Sneddon and Zo\u00eb Skoulding<\/em><\/strong><\/a> Transmission<\/em><\/a>\u00a0is an annual series of lectures and symposia, now in its seventeenth year, and is a collaboration between Fine Art, the Art & Design Research Centre at Sheffield Hallam University, and\u00a0Site Gallery<\/a>. Convened by Sharon Kivland in 2001,\u00a0Transmission<\/em>\u00a0was developed collaboratively with Lesley Sanderson from 2001 to 2004, and with Jasper Joseph-Lester from 2004 to 2012. The\u00a0series is now convened by Sharon Kivland, TC McCormack, Hester\u00a0Reeve,\u00a0and Julie\u00a0Westerman,\u00a0in association with Site\u00a0Gallery,\u00a0Sheffield. The lecture series has an annual theme, and involves students\u00a0from\u00a0Fine\u00a0Art,\u00a0from undergraduates\u00a0to\u00a0PhDs.<\/p>\n Transmission<\/em> is the passing of information via a channel, and this is the intention of the Transmission<\/em> project. We enquire about the aesthetic and discursive forms required by practices in the field of contemporary art and theory that address sociality and subjectivity. It has encompassed a lecture programme, seminar discussions, an annual symposium, a print portfolio, four series of books: Transmission Annual, The Rules of Engagement, Transmission chapbooks, and five volumes of discussions\/interviews, entitled Transmission: Speaking and Listening. These are published by Artwords Press, London.<\/p>\n Site Gallery\u00a0is Sheffield\u2019s international contemporary art space, specialising in moving image, new media, and performance.
