Abstract
What’s Already Going On is an environment composed of overlapping spatial configurations of the Gallery and the University. A series of corridors channel the audience around a central void. Through makeshift walls, reference is made to contemporary structures that are built for transitory use. In moving around the space, the audience is situated in close proximity to the perimeter of the gallery, looking into rooms through narrow openings, discovering doors that open partially, and others that are shut. Here Palmer pursues her interest in the capacity to change your path and how we confront structural constraints, or internalised resistance, preventing the transgression of dominant ways of thinking, imagining and being. An eight screen video displays documentary footage of knife throwing practice in a University office at night. The corridors display 75 drawings of lines. Continuing Palmer’s process of de-centring, or diverting the sense of what’s important, her writing practice is here replaced with cursive movements; throwing sheets, propelling a knife, moving pens, working with momentum, flow and interruption, forces and responses, while simultaneously shifting the focus from the centre of the space.
