But what I do is to kneel with my drawing board in front of me on the ground as I cannot s tand. This has always given me a way to see and feel that I am physically part of the landscape. I explore the space and make\, through drawing\, a memory. Then\, with my memory guide\, I work on a canvas back in the studi o to move the landscape into a painting. If I succeed\, the painting has a n autonomy separate from the landscape but still grounded in the place."\n \nDr Morag Rose - Speaker\n\nMorag Rose is a walking artist-activist-acade mic and a Senior Lecturer in Human Geography at The University of Liverpoo l.
