Anxiolytic Plumbago

As with carbon under extreme pressure, it produces graphite layers, so seen here in the work ‘Anxiolytic Plumbago’. The very physical process of release and control seen through the spinning, cutting, smudging and bashing of graphite onto the paper. The spiralling, metallic grey, rhythmic shapes emerge from the process.

This ten-metre drawing was displayed at the Ovada Gallery within the ‘Automony’ exhibition with 6 other artists.
