Abstract

Research Background This exhibition comprises drawings from the studio component of my DVA research titled Marks of Depiction: An investigation Perception and Processes of Drawing. This works operates in the field of mimesis, perception and the graphic image. The littoral zone around the waterways of the Brisbane River is the site for these drawings. The aim of this exhibition is to demonstrate that drawn images can provide an evolving visual experience of interpretation, one in which the elusive present or moment provides a platform for artist and viewer, to interact with images in a process of discovery and problem solving.

Research Contribution This research project investigates drawn depiction in contemporary culture where attention is commodified and mass-produced images flood the marketplace, risking an automatised viewer response. The drawing in this exhibition combines scientific, philosophical and psychological insights regarding perception and viewer response to images, with my evolving awareness of the materiality and temporality involved in the drawing process. New knowledge gained includes innovative drawn interpretations of the littoral zone where both additive and subtractive drawing techniques are used. This exhibition contributes to my research goal of expanding the awareness of the role of drawing in this process in developing non-discursive understanding.

Research Significance Applications to exhibit at Redlands Regional Galleries are reviewed by a selection panel, including the gallery director who curates the exhibition. When the exhibition is offered curator and artist meet to discuss the exhibition. This process is an indication significance of the research.
