Abstract
In this paper I will be discussing my use of material and process as conceptual elements for exploration in my practice, and the ways that narrative intersects with my work. I will be focusing on the first four works in ‘here’, my ongoing body of sculpture, installation and video works. These works examine human relationships with place through a lens of the contemporary and historical.\nI am not exclusively a textile artist although I have used textiles periodically throughout my practice and extensively in the last several years. In my practice I draw on the social, personal and formal connotations of a wide range of materials and processes as integral conceptual components. Because of a heightened social relevance associated with the development of cultures in relation to both domestic and industrial territory, I have found textiles to be particularly suited to the embodiment of the issues I am currently exploring. Most, but not all, of the work I will present in this paper is situated within the realm of textile practice.\nMy work incorporates aspects of memory and history, cultural and personal iconography, and elements of the social and political to examine continua of human behavior. In connection to this path of inquiry in general, and in particular to my current explorations into issues relating to place and belonging, I am interested in the ways in which knowledge is indirectly communicated through generations, how experience and memory seep from one generation to the next to inform identity and agency. I see the familial narrative as a significant part of this intangible process - amalgams of subjective memory that act as conduits through which the lived experiences of our ancestors filter through time to inhabit our character.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
