This panel brings together researchers looking at aspects of dialogic exchange. Carole L\u00e9vesque and Thomas-Bernard Kenniff will reflect on the design and curatorial position developed for \u2018Drawing Conversations,\u2019 a recent exhibition presented at the Centre de design in Montr\u00e9al, Canada, for which the two presenters were co-curators. They will consider the relational aspects of drawing practice and situate it within assemblages contingent on temporal, material, and investigative dimensions, or, in other words, as a situated process of making sense. Marili de Weerdt will discuss \u2018The Art of Climbing a tree\u2019 a body of collaborative artworks that investigate the ways in which the act of drawing can be seen as a form of communication and interaction between the human and non-human. de Weerdt will suggest that collaborative drawing offers new perspectives on the interconnectedness of things and suggest that the act of drawing can be a means of fostering a more respectful relationship with the non-human natural world. Susan Turcot will discuss a collaboration with forest researchers and participants in which a set of interactive drawn cards continues to evolve around climate (change) and its effect on the phenological cycle of trees. Turcot will share the relationships that have emerged through this drawing practice with birch and birch users as well as with scientists and members of the public in both urban and rural contexts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The session will be chaired by Rachel Gadsden-Hayton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He cofounded the Bureau d\u2019\u00e9tude de pratiques indisciplin\u00e9es with Carole L\u00e9vesque in 2016 and coedited Urban Inventories (B\u00e9PI, 2021). He holds a PhD from the Bartlett School of Architecture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marili de Weerdt<\/strong> was born and is currently situated in Pretoria, South Africa. As an artist-researcher they are interested in the intersection between the process of making, cultivation, indigenous botany and ecological being. de Weerdt values the explorative, tacit, and experimental actions of practice-led research and sharing the experience of collaborative making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Susan Turcot<\/strong> is an artist and Professor of drawing at the University of Qu\u00e9bec in Montreal presently researching collaborative and meaning-making processes with plants and their indicating messages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
