Since 2020, I’ve started making marker drawings, which took away my ability to erase unwanted lines. I thus began to make a very different kind of drawing, in addition to the ongoing pencil drawings.

During my adolescence, I became fascinated by architecture and drew everything with rulers. The free, curvilinear drawing on display here reacted to that highly structured method. However, architectural details (stairs, rooflines) have recently reappeared in these biomorphic abstractions.
I read the nature of the lines in my drawings as being abstracted from the human body. I also read the increasingly curvilinear forms of technological products seeking to be more “high-touch” to somewhat hide the decidedly “no-touch” world of the machines’ structure.

So, in short, you have the environment (designed objects) and the inhabitant (human body) together. The rest is a mystery to me, but a compelling one.
