Drawing
Sophie Babouli, 2011
Drawing has always been with us, from prehistory to the present. Primary to thinking and communicating, we make drawings to convey meaning.
As an image made by marking a surface, drawings emerge through direct observation, memory, imagination and recording of various kinds of information, as well as departing from representation altogether focusing on abstract composition, mark making, and texture.
Recent contemporary art has shown a renewed energy around drawing, and drawing has expanded to embrace practices such as video, digital art, print, installation, and photography. As well as conventional mediums such as charcoal, gouache, pencil, and paper, drawing also uses mediums such as yarn, tape, plastics, and projections.
