ADFA-S220 Drawing: Shifting Scales

Investigates how shifts in scale alter our perception of space. We live in a world of great contrasts in scale: hand-held screens can download Google Earth and nanotechnologies can change the lives of entire continents. Since evolving technologies have altered our understanding of our environment, artists need to incorporate this new knowledge to the art of Drawing. This figure-based course uses descriptive observation as the starting point for addressing visual invention. Working from a model, traditional techniques are combined with digital imaging and sequential genres such as graphic novels to develop an expanded experimental palette.
