Leah Piotroski - Ecoerotic Timecraft
I am a multi-disciplinary artist, working across print, textiles, illustration, and writing. Through an apprenticeship to Deep Time, I explore how bodies, places, and materials carry time and shape one another.This work takes shape along the Nishi-sakwick Creek.
CURRENT INQUIRY
Estuary is my current year-long inquiry within Deep Time Lab.Annual profections, an ancient timekeeping device, let me enter Time as Place and follow its questions through watershed, body, cyclical time, and everyday knowledge.ENTER
Timecraft for Creatives
Your year has a shape of its own. I use annual profections—an ancient astrological timekeeping practice—to read the conditions of your current year. From the profected house, its time lord, and their relationships in your birth chart, I develop a landscape or ecosystemic image for the year as a way to sense its terrain, tensions, resources, and possible paths.The reading offers an orientation for your creative life. You leave with a more vivid sense of the year you’re moving through and questions you can work with in your own practice.
