Psalm 65:8 iii ABSTRACT Discovery is an age-old concept. The lands of Australia and New Zealand were colonized through the adventurous spirit of the explorers we find on the coins or notes of our countries today. In comparison to the Old World, the lands of the antipodean ‘new world’ seem to be not quite tamed and some places remain untouched. The light, colours and forms possess a sense of moodiness that is evocative of the spiritual; the lands could be described as “visual psalms”. Representation of the ‘new world’ is largely imaged through the European conventions of the Old World. Historically, artists throughout New Zealand and Australia have grappled with developing imaging methods that can truthfully render all that the new world represents. Research for this thesis led to an exploration of techniques and ideas utilized by artists such as Colin McCahon, William Robinson and Euan Macleod in the quest to capture the spirit of place in our southern lands. In investigating the old world conventions applied to an explication of the new, I was particularly interested in the religious and the spiritual and how these act as markers or guides to interpreting the land. The grandiosity of the southern lands awakens a sense of the spiritual, prompting an exploration of philosophical and theological ideas around the sublime and the beautiful. This led to an investigation into the transcendent and infinite qualities of the sublime and its relation to the divine. This research accumulated to a personal investigation or discovery of the sublime through filters of spirituality. The poetic sensibility, literature, lyrics and music of the Romantics played an integral part in this discovery. The spiritual symbolism and significance of sky and clouds were explored and this fostered a tendency to focus on the drama of light, colour and movement found in an ever- changing sky. The desire to capture movement in sky through paint led to specific research on other artists such as Victor Majzner, Stephen Bush and Kate Shaw, all of whom stretch the material possibilities of paint. Through a praxis-based research I have sought to develop imaging methodologies with the fluidity necessary to articulate my own sense of spirit of place as well as the specific geological topographies of New Zealand and Australia. iv CONTENTS Introduction 1 Part One: Defining the Sublime 2 Etymology 2 ‘Beauty’ versus ‘Sublime’ 3 Part Two: The Transformative Power of the Sublime 7 The Divine found in the Sublime 7 The Romantics 11 Part Three: Discovering the Sublime 20 My Personal Discovery of the Sublime 20 Old World versus New World Filters 28 Contemporary responses to the sublime 34 Part Four: Spirituality and the Land 40 Beauty Pointing to the Infinite 40 The Spiritual Significance of the Sky 42 A study of light, colour and sound 52 Part Five: The Creative Process 61 Fluid Painting Methodology 61 Observing Other Artists’ Responses to the Land 67 Conclusion 72 v INTRODUCTION My art practice is centred on a spiritual and emotional response that comes through a personal journey of discovering the sublime of New Zealand and Australian landscape. In this paper, I will introduce and explore ideas surrounding the sublime and explain how these ideas have inspired my painting practice. It has become evident to me that the youth of these countries make them unique as the land has not been completely tamed; in comparison to the countries of the Old World, the vast expanses of mountain ranges, plains, deserts, and lakes are relatively untouched. The ephemeral quality of light and colour in New Zealand and Australia is suggestive of poetry and passion. My aim is to capture the poetry and passion present in these landscapes and reproduce the essence of this through paint. Therefore, in my praxis-based research, I have placed an emphasis on experimenting with the material and physical properties of paint, developing new imaging methodologies so that I can fulfil this aim. In Part One, the concept of the sublime is introduced and defined by looking at the etymology of the word “sublime” and the subsequent relationship beauty has to the sublime. Part Two explores the transformative power of the sublime with a focus on the Romantics and recognition of the divine in relation to the sublime. Part Three looks at various ways to discover the sublime. I share my personal discovery of the sublime before looking at both historical and contemporary responses to the discovery of the sublime. Part Four focuses on the spirituality of place and recognition of the infinite in relation to the experience of the sublime whilst being in the land. The spiritual significance of the sky or “heavens” is explored, as is the purpose or role of beauty, through a study of light, colour and sound in direct relation to my practice as well as other practitioners. Lastly, in Part Five, the creative process of my studio practice is explained in detail, and other artists whose practice has had an influence on my process or way of thinking is acknowledged. 1 PART ONE: DEFINING THE SUBLIME Etymology For the purposes of this research and discourse, it is imperative to introduce the background theory on ideas of the sublime. The word ‘sublime’ etymologically derives from the Latin sublimis meaning elevated, lofty or sublime. When we break the word down into parts, which is the best way to understand the origins of the word’s creation, we see that sub means ‘up to’ and limis or limen means threshold, doorway, boundary or limit. Hence, the basic premise of the meaning of the sublime is to be ‘transported’ and the word is used to articulate a quality of grandeur or magnitude, whether that is physical, metaphysical, moral, intellectual, aesthetic, spiritual or artistic in nature. In reading through various texts it can be seen that the origins of the use of the word ‘sublime’ is paired with the practice of alchemy. The alchemists modified the word sublimis into a verb sublimare, which means ‘to elevate’ and was: …commonly used by alchemists to describe the purifying process by which substances were turned into a gas on being subjected to heat, then cool and become a newly transformed solid. Modern chemistry still refers to the ‘sublimation’ of substances but of course without its mystical alchemical connotation, whereby purification also entailed transmutation into a higher state of spiritual existence.i This early usage of the word correlates with my own experiences of the sublime and is what I strive to communicate through my artwork. The poetic impact of the metaphor of being purified though the sublime - or changed spiritually - is what captured my imagination when reading. When encountering beauty, my spirit has often felt as though it were being simultaneously lifted and cleansed; I feel that beauty elevates my soul and mind to “a higher state of spiritual existence”. 2 ‘Beauty’ versus ‘Sublime’ In looking at the sublime the word ‘beauty’ is often used; however, it is important to acknowledge that while beauty can draw our attention to the sublime or be a facet of the sublime, the two are not synonymous. This brief background I have covered is the foundation of thinking that has inspired and provoked artists, writers and art historians to examine their viewpoint on a subject that is controversial in definition and application. Others have chosen to disregard notions of the sublime as irrelevant or out-dated. However, in looking at the main ideas surrounding the definition of sublime it can be argued that the human experience is unaltered by the times we live in at the basic level of appreciating both beauty and the sublime in nature. In recent times, there has been commentary on the present age of technology and how our understanding of the sublime and all it encompasses has widened as a result. In this paper, I will particularly address the more traditional qualities of the sublime through the human experience of being in the land or nature, as this is what my research is centred on Subsequently, though I acknowledge there is a broad range of writings on the sublime, I will focus on those I consider most relevant to describing the sublime experience of being in the land.

  • Landscape Painting
    Landscape Painting Kate Sandilands Joyce Nelson, Sign Crimes/Road Kill: From Mediascape to Landscape (Toronto, Between the Lines 1992). Andrew Wilson, The Culture of Nature: North American Landscape from Disney to the Exxon Valdez (Toronto, Between the Lines 1991). As Raymond Williams wrote some time ago, "the idea of nature contains, though often unnoticed, an extraordinary amount of human history."'At the same time as the idea marks a series of radically different, and historically changing, usages, relations and meanings, it has also come to represent some basic quality, some underlying continuity that differentiates the epiphenomenal from the essential in humanity's vision of itself and the world. Thus, the movement between the "nature" of something and the something called "nature" shows a social order in the throes of self-definition: the tension between the production of an "essence," a sense of a historical trajectory, and the synchronic proliferation of plural meanings, in the working-out of "nature." Joyce Nelson and Andrew Wilson both capture this tension well; each shows the constitution of nature through the multiple, conflicting, and often destructive dis- courses of modernity and postrnodemity. Indeed, they both go a long way toward showing just how much human history is contained in the idea of "nature." In an era marked by "ecological crisis," such investigations would seem crucial indeed. But these books are not panic texts, not works of social inquiry parroting the voices of "hard" science on environmental apocalypse. They are, instead, works which show the tensions and contradictionsof North Americans's relations to "nature," something that all too many contemporary writings of an environmentalistvein overlook in their singular condemnation of the more destructive elements of western social life.

  • The Hudson River School
    Art, Artists and Nature: The Hudson River School The landscape paintings created by the 19 th century artist known as the Hudson River School celebrate the majestic beauty of the American wilderness. Students will learn about the elements of art, early 19 th century American culture, the creative process, environmental concerns and the connections to the birth of American literature. New York State Standards: Elementary, Intermediate, and Commencement The Visual Arts – Standards 1, 2, 3, 4 Social Studies – Standards 1, 3 ELA – Standards 1, 3, 4 BRIEF HISTORY By the mid-nineteenth century, the United States was no longer the vast, wild frontier it had been just one hundred years earlier. Cities and industries determined where the wilderness would remain, and a clear shift in feeling toward the American wilderness was increasingly ruled by a new found reverence and longing for the undisturbed land. At the same time, European influences - including the European Romantic Movement - continued to shape much of American thought, along with other influences that were distinctly and uniquely American. The traditions of American Indians and their relationship with nature became a recognizable part of this distinctly American Romanticism. American writers put words to this new romantic view of nature in their works, further influencing the evolution of American thought about the natural world. It found means of expression not only in literature, but in the visual arts as well. A focus on the beauty of the wilderness became the passion for many artists, the most notable came to be known as the Hudson River School Artists. The Hudson River School was a group of painters, who between 1820s and the late nineteenth century, established the first true tradition of landscape painting in the United States.

  • 1 the Alps, Richard Strauss's Alpine Symphony and Environmentalism
    Note: This is an expanded version of an article appearing in the journal Green Letters (2011); it is intended for a literary rather than musical readership, and the punctuation and spellings are British. The Alps, Richard Strauss’s Alpine Symphony and Environmentalism By Brooks Toliver Introduction After love and death, nature may well be European music’s preferred theme; it figures significantly in troubadour cansos, pastoral madrigals and operas, tone poems, impressionistic preludes, and elsewhere. In light of this it is puzzling how seldom actual nature is invoked in musical discourse. Composers—Richard Strauss among them—have been known to seek out nature in the manner of landscape painters, but there is no similar tradition among the critics, who ground nature-music and their judgments of it not in nature but in other music and criticism. When confronted with the vivid imagery of Strauss’s Alpine Symphony (1915), contemporaries wrote primarily of the aesthetics of vivid imagery, relegating the images themselves to the level of anecdote. Musicologists are quite adept at exploring the relationship of works to cultural constructions of nature, but relatively few have brought real environments into the discussion of canonical music. There has as yet been no serious consideration of how the Alps might be critical to an appreciation of the Alpine Symphony, nor has anyone theorized what the consequences of the Alpine Symphony might be for the Alps. Surely it is worth asking whether it metaphorically embodies sustaining or destructive relationships to the environment it represents, if it respects or disrespects nonhuman nature, and if love of nature is contingent on a symbolic domination of it, to name just three questions.

From the psychic Ben paljor chatag to the specific, from recollection to recording, the works in this exhibit recreate the power of place in the human jeFF chien-hsing liao imagination. The nine artists in this group exhibition have traversed the dahlia elsayed globe, from the North Pole to Alexandria, Egypt, from Tibet to Italy, and from Flatbush to Central Park. Some travel in ellie ga the imaginative realms, others may never leave the studio. This exhibit takes inspiration from the notion of dérive or kellyanne hanrahan “drifting,” a word coined by French Marxist philosopher, Guy Debord, one of the founders of the Situationists International emily hass movement.
