Drawing Maps.
My work serves as a commentary on image making and is rooted in art history, cinema and the history of the convergence of art and the moving image. ‘Drawing Map A’ and ‘Drawing Map B’ form part of a body of work which explores the representation and archiving of the passage of time within film, photography and drawing and focuses on the uncomfortable contrasts which exist between these processes. These ‘drawing maps’ examine the domain between motion and still pictures, the translation of an image from a video still to a drawing (the reduction of information in which the work becomes symbolic in content) and also the elements and thought process present in image making.
