 THE ROOM AND THE LANDSCAPE
Peter Goché + Thomas Prinz, 2020
Digital Exhibition 01

"It's about the wall, the wall of absence, the wall of presence.  It's about the box being attached to the wall as opposed to the wall being attached to the box.  It's about light, it's about dark, it's about transparency, translucency, it's about absence, about presence.  The sense of layering, transparency, overlap.  The wall has a sculptural quality which goes beyond an architectural quality, it's a combination of both.  Perforated metal to overlap light apertures, a sense of structure, exposure of the building process.  A combination of classical order with randomness, ramp, plinth."
- Thomas Prinz, Text message to Mike Nesbit. 22 March 2020.

a thought confined to a room
springs tireless hands
an itch with no place to scratch
a thought delicate to the breeze
confinement of physicality
the hands search
materiality questioned
a decision made
the thought corralled

a thought confined to a landscape
springs tireless feet
an itch with no place to scratch
a thought delicate to the breeze
confinement of physicality
the feet search
materiality questioned
a decision made
the thought corralled

a tireless thought within a corral
patient hands tend the anxiousness
starting, stopping, moving, pausing
building, breaking, stacking, falling
patient hands slowly still
corralled thought less anxious
​
a tireless thought within a corral
patient feet tend the anxiousness
starting, stopping, moving, pausing
building, breaking, stacking, falling
patient feet slowly still
corralled thoughts less anxious

an object rests quietly confined
the hands begin to tremble
a thought towards the landscape
the object thrown from the room
the hands walk out like feet

an object rests quietly confined
the feet begin to tremble
a thought towards the room
the object thrown from the landscape
the feet carry in like hands

About the Artists:
​
Peter Goché is an artist, architect and educator. Goché works with the nature of perception and spatial phenomenon in developing his experimental drawing practice. His works provoke a temporal-spatial encounter that understand the simultaneous and complex nature of cerebral and corporeal experience. He is founder and director of Black Contemporary, a rural field station dedicated to the study of experimental drawing and perception. He has staged exhibitions of his work at the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art, Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts, The Soap Factory, the Des Moines Art Center, University of Florida School of Architecture and the Waldemar A. Schmidt Art Gallery. He has co-lead workshops at the 2014 and 2018 Venice Biennale. As educator in the Department of Architecture and foundational design at Iowa State University, Goché holds both B. Arch and M. Arch degrees in architectural studies from Iowa State University. Goché has presented papers and lectured on his creative practice and scholarship at many conferences and cultural institutions throughout North America and Western Europe. His understanding and sensibilities regarding spatial experience and ethno-specific design stem from an agrarian upbringing and ongoing research in art, architecture and anthropology at Iowa State University. Equally, his travel throughout North America, Europe and the Czech Republic has nurtured his interest in human beings, their practices and the ways they occupy and perceive space.
