"The lines are drawn...
In this work I want to explore the visual excitement stimulated by the interaction of sets of lines. I am interested in the relationship between two-dimensional drawing juxtaposed with the three-dimensional drawing in space. The patterning of lines on the wall forms a kind of rhythmic bass visually interrupted by the lyrical flights of the lines forming the spatial drawing… The work in its entirety can be seen as a line drawing in space."
