VIBRANT INTERSECTIONS: small drawings

For the Vibrant Intersections series, I build on the techniques I first developed for the Red and Black series. I enjoyed creative process and decided to expand and explore by introducing new colors. These drawings became the inspiration to transfer the technique to painting for the Organic Algorithms paintings.

Like my paintings, the Vibrant Intersection drawings are inspired by the dynamic chaos of the city. A multitude of graphite, free flowing gestural lines, each crossing the picture plane, form the foundation of an organic algorithm that these pieces are built on.

Then, switching between several colors of ink, I find new paths following the already created intersecting lines, building routes to further define the space of the chaotic grid. The cumulative activities weave themselves into a dense form where paths intersect and diverge. The finished drawings challenge the viewer to follow the lines, the flow of color or to see the fragements of space defined within each small area of the drawings.
