SLICA, 24h Residency, Horizons. 7/01/2012
We are interested in creating drawn lines that contemplate the perceptual reality of ‘Horizons’. A horizon is a reverberation of the infinite in the finite; it is an outside view of an inner vista, an unobtainable location and a literal representation of a definite line. The contemplation of a horizon is both a practical reality as well as an imaginary safety belt that has to be believed in. A horizon line drawn within a space, which is not infinite, questions the fluidity of boundary lines and borders. The fundamental forms of representation are the line and the circle; represented by the sun, the divided line and the cave.
Open Drawer Projects investigate drawing by constructing a temporary ‘microtopia’ within the suburban residency space.
