The drawings aim to expand on a system of display that looks to further ideas of language and linguistics. The lined paper becomes almost a learned value like the schoolboy writing lines, it became about repetition, information and storage. A process of painting through painting and how information became saturated overworked and lost, only to be push back, erased and relocated. A volume that was built on top of itself: the very visceral process of editing, with all the notes and doodles included.
The drawings push back the sometimes-unconscious urge to produce a painting with fixed variables. Destroying the thing your constructing seems idiosyncratic but it seemed to open out a much freer dialogue with the marks. It also allowed failure, which forced the hand back into a new system of editing. This became such a freer and open dialogue that I began to part-take in. The silhouette became a projection, a hollow cast, to be pushed around the surface. A materialisation of the thoughts and actions and how they can be re-registered in the display. A storage of the workings internally and externally.
