Based in Melbourne and the Netherlands, James Geurts produces site and time-specific projects that draw out the dynamics of physical forces and geographic fields. Geurts focuses on conceptual lines in perception, and lines constructed within natural space, such as meridians, tidal zones, floodlines, horizons, and orbitals. Geurts’ practice locates ‘paradigms of measurement’ and ‘psychogeographic methods’ as they unfold over extended periods of field research. Geurts explores these features using processes ranging from ephemeral and permanent public sculpture, drawing, installation, video, photography and living monochromes. For the research residency at KDMOFA he will explore the possibilities and limits of measuring the Tamsui River physically and conceptually through site-responsive works.
