I visited the Jerwood Drawing Prize exhibition at the Burton Art Gallery in Bideford on friday. It was an interesting experience, which made me acknowlege the importance of drawing in my own practice. This prize shows the huge diversity in contemporary drawing practice. I particularly liked the large ink drawing of a fragmented woven piece of fabric by Chie Konishi. The work was on 150x200cm piece of tracing paper, and it spoke to me of the vulnerability and strength I’d like to embody in my own work.
