The physical act

Stripped of all else, drawing is a physical act. As such, it should carry the potential of the entire body, its history and experience. Drawing activated at the wrist alone is limited, often poorly informed and narrow in its possibilities. The mark should be informed by the capacity of the entire body in its pace, rhythm, extension, touch and character. It should create space from the physical experience of moving in space. It should respond to the figure from its own history of being alive. When necessary, the mark should be able to dance, to scream, to caress, to dream.
