Drawing Connections

collage / actual: 10x15 cm, oil chalk, coffee, paper

Series of drawings in which the connection between matter and the act of drawing is made concrete. The lines become visible through the movement of the hand that passes over the texture of a stony background with the drawing material (oil chalk). The dots that appear on the paper are interconnected by the action. Action and object are directly related to each other. By applying different drawing techniques, an image that appeals to the imagination is created. It is the mimicry of nature itself. On the paper are also prints of a cup of coffee that was drunk during the production process. This technique was eagerly applied by the German surrealist painter Max Ernst. The big difference with these drawings is that in these paintings it served to create a certain texture as a visual element in the scenes he created. In these drawings, however, it is about action and connection itself.

The idea came with the theme of 'connecting', which is also characteristic of the way in which 'a whole' is created, regarding the artsists oeuvre; from a great freedom in terms of medium and techniques and various different projects, each of which has an independent cohesion, but also as a sub-project for the ever expanding and increasingly converging whole. In this case, the work arose from reflections on the working title of the 'Drawing Connections' project of the Siena Art Institute (Italy), where a work from the series was exhibited in a group exhibition and is now part of the permanent collection.
