With line as a central motif, the video exhibition titled Land Line emerges from an expansive approach to drawing and departs from traditional modes of artistic and scientific representation. Through a lexicon of provisional tools and actions, Land Line articulates a process of enquiry foregrounding chance, the tactile, earth’s forces and the everyday.

Built on a shared interest in human-Earth relationships, the indexical nature of rock materials and the cognitive challenge of geologic time, the collaborative practice of Meghan Price and Suzanne Nacha develops methodologies for engaging geologic sites. Employing their combined expertise in textiles, sculpture, painting and geology, they mine the earth sciences for ‘signs’ that hold the potential to connect human experience to the physical earth.
