Embodied drawing is my door to 'no mind' – the core of my practice. This process of finding, rather than imposing, permeates my work. Through my engagement with digital and mechanical tools, into painting, each process passes through a filter of finding.
In this drawing I keep coming back to the negative space – the pregnant void of Robert Motherwell's 'open' series, the sense that the void is the work. Here void and line flutter between dominance. Calligraphy rehearses the gesture from a concrete intention; my process is the opposite – the gesture is the intention, from the body not the mind.
