Comins × Shatwell Tea House

Comins × Shatwell Tea House

Similar to the way the soil, climate, cultivar, and—of course—the tea maker come together to craft distinct and flavourful teas, numerous helping hands played an important role in the journey that culminated in the process and construction of the Comins × Shatwell Tea House.

At Shatwell Farm, the adventure began with a meticulous task: measuring, surveying, surveying… Under changing skies, with gale-force winds, sudden downpours and the occasional ray of sunshine, we stood outside with my comrade Michael and our sketchbooks, loose leaf and mechanical pencils in hand, ready to capture the site. It… Read More

All of us got to build a 4 meters tall pyramid out of small wooden sticks. We used this structure as a starting point for our drawing. As we visited the site, we were struck by the arch, that was very conveniently right in front of our sculpture. Thus we… Read More

Drawing Matter’s central meadow is enclosed by both built spaces and the topography, selected drawn fragments will highlight this specificity. We use 2 methods: triangulation to construct the enclosure, and successive levels points to understand the topography. The first forms the plane of the field, the second its depth. The… Read More
