ARTIST STATEMENT:
Drawing, in its broadest sense, is mark making. My work is an investigation into the potential and diversity of drawing as a medium and not ‘just a process’. My works explore a combination of bubble solution, graphite and ink with time led and performative processes. The object is captured on paper. It dissolves, explodes and ceases to exist in its current form. What remains is a mark of an object that once existed, a moment captured in time. These created forms have then been manipulated and appropriated to create playful scenes/narratives.
My work, investigating drawing, engages with everlasting changes in its process. I have
combined ink with different solutions and conditions to create bubbles and ice. I enjoy the
idea of having physical object, an object, which can only exist in a moment (in some cases
in certain conditions) and trying to capture an essence of its being. I am changing the state
of my materials for them to permanently alter, an everlasting change.
