Crafted Division

2014- On going

In sets of drawings which develop in pairs, I reflect two roles that humans enter physically and intellectually when involved in processes of production and reproduction. The first drawing reflects the spontaneous expression of labour as an encounter with the un-known (the resulting image is not evident at the beginning of the drawing). In the second drawing, labour is approached as re-production, mechanical repetitive process of purpose-oriented succession of gestures (replication).
