Check Points: references to place and the spaces in between.

I spent six months drawing around three city laneway artist studio locations. Hundreds of drawings were made with lines and colours taken from the locations. The works portray states of deep investigative reflection where the consciousness and labour create new pathways through the likeness of a desk. A desk that became a portal of transcendence, reformation and gratitude to share. A reminder that routine frees up the active mind, so it can wander and disappear.

I acknowledge the Wurundjeri as the true custodians of the Eastern Kulin nation where I live and work. I stand with Indigenous struggles and think that animistic belief systems would reflect the reality of the world more accurately and fairly than recent intellectual inventions of the dominant belief systems in place today.
