You can ask a lot of drawing


It’s easy to think you know what drawing is until you ask it to solve problems posed by the imagination, the unseen, the mysterious, the complexity of reality, the connective tissue of the human and natural worlds, the depth of the human experience, the sound of eyes freshly opened. Then it becomes a language capable of grappling with a world constantly bubbling up new universes. Its flexibility, nuances, capacities, potentials, universality and persistence get called upon. It’s an act that, by its nature, draws out aspects of the human experience that do not as easily emerge through the act of forming meaning through words.
