A little nibble of text from a proposal we’re putting together…
THIS IS MEDITATIVE: DRAWING AS A FORUM FOR COLLABORATIVE EXCHANGE
“Two artists can often have a conversation about their work, but working together rarely happens without building a collaborative relationship first. Artists can now give one another video links, profile pages or websites for reference, read statements, CVs or follow a slide show of portfolio images. But is this an actual artistic relationship, a representation of one, or just a by-product of new technologies and how they are re-forming the context of artistic reproduction? Both artists use the medium of drawing as a process to initiate and drive ideas in their work, and it is with this where they began to explore the above question.”
