A selection of drawings produced between early 2021 and mid 2022, presented in chronological order and categorised with an incremental [T] number, scanned with a dated file name and digitally archived using a simple meta data system. Although the drawings are signed for playful authentication and folio pieces are declared as 1/1 edition or AP/I, they are all original and unique pieces. Most non notebook single drawings have a 'T' number without a visual date.
Not all numbered drawings are shown here.
There are some short annotations amongst the drawings for context. Otherwise they are part of a continuous journey of discovery. Inspiration absorbed from some incredible artists exploring themes of Abstract Expressionism, Tachisme, calligraphic abstractions, striation, Western and Eastern philosophies, Enso and Taoism, etching and other print and mark making processes.
A project attempting to explore and rationalise our existence and identify the essence of the human form.
