Viral Drawings: Transmission BC / QT / AV
(2021)
author(s): Karen Schiff
published in: VIS - Nordic Journal for Artistic Research
This exposition reflects on the drawings I was making at different stages during the COVID-19 pandemic. Initially they are compared to my long-term practice of making abstract drawings patterned on language, and then they are used to theorize a "poetics of transmission." This framework is discussed in relation both to how the virus is transmitted and to how ideas are created and circulated. Various analytical interpretations of the drawings are considered. At some moments, I treat dots in the drawings like ideas or virus particles; at other moments, the strategies I use for connecting the dots represent the process of generating ideas. The drawings become tools for the "research" of thinking through physical and intellectual contagion.
Jaloittelemassa – Kävelemällä piirtäminen ja viivojen paikat
(2021)
author(s): Kalle Lampela
published in: RUUKKU - Studies in Artistic Research
Tässä ekspositiossa esitän, kuinka tuotan jälkeä ja havainnoin maailmaa kävelemällä. Jaloitteleminen saa kehon liikkeeseen, jonka jälki piirtyy paperille. Käveleminen piirtämisen keinona on kuitenkin sillä tavalla performatiivista, prosessuaalista ja syntyhetkensä tapahtumiseen kiinnittynyttä, että pelkästään jäljet paperilla eivät voi antaa siitä kattavaa kuvaa. Siksi tarkastelen jaloitteluani kokonaisuutena.

published in: Research Catalogue
Inappropriate Shift is the title of a co-authored chapter in Collective and Collaborative Drawing in Contemporary Practice [eds Journeaux and Gorrill] by Dr Catherine Baker (Birmingham City University and Kimberley Foster (Goldsmiths University). However, it is part of a larger project conceived in 2015 been the two authors that includes a number of drawing related activities and is ongoing called Inappropriate Collisions.
ANCHORAGE: a phenomenology of outline
(2017)
author(s): Joe Graham, Steven Dickie, Chantal Faust
published in: Journal for Artistic Research
'ANCHORAGE' constitutes a collaborative piece of phenomenologically inspired drawing research, undertaken by artists Joe Graham, Steven Dickie, and Chantal Faust. Comprising forty drawings plus a written text, the objective is to ‘outline’ an understanding of the phenomenon of outline, described in an effort to overcome the traditionally definitive descriptions of it that abound (Rawson 1987; Maynard 2005; Thomas and Taylor 2003). In this respect, it constitutes both a relocation and an online extension of an earlier stage to the project, published in print: 'ANCHOR' (2015). In outlining an alternative form of reply to the earlier question (what is an outline?), the purpose of 'ANCHORAGE' is to revisit what was left uninspected or simply assumed; namely, whether an invariant understanding of outline in relation to drawing as a form of art might sensibly be defined. To address this notion, a variety of hand drawn ‘outlines’ by Graham, Dickie, and Faust are supplied for analysis, using original material from 'ANCHOR' as a guide. As lead investigator, the text by Graham seeks to unpack these variations as a part of a Husserlian-inspired methodology (Husserl [1950] 1999). This is geared towards seeking what an essential or perhaps even ‘truthful’ understanding of outline might look like, contingent on the drawings presented here.

CONFERENCE, UNIVERSITY OF PORTO.
October 16, 17, 18th, 2024
::
Drawing Across :: Along :: Between University Borders considers the epistemological and transformative potential of drawing research to connect divergent areas in the university today. The conference focuses on drawing-based collaborations between art, science and society to tackle artistic, educational and societal challenges. We invite artists, scientists, educators, students, university policymakers and persons interested in inter-transdisciplinary practices across academia, research, and society to contribute and join the discussion in three possible directions:
ACROSS - In what ways are drawing practitioners challenging the disciplinary strictures that often constrain thinking and acting across divergent areas in the university?
ALONG - How can drawing activities be an ally of STEM education in the university, and how can STEM practices be an ally of drawing education?
BETWEEN - How can drawing-based practices and STEM disciplines collaborate to address the urgency of societal challenges?
[Hyper]drawing

author(s): Russell Marshall, Phil Sawdon
This exposition is in progress and its share status is: visible to all.
[Hyper]drawing is a research project.
Hyperdrawing is an opportunity for [fine art] drawing practice.
This Research Catalogue exposition documents ongoing research into Hyperdrawing: Hyperdrawing is an ambiguous practice. Hyperdrawing adopts a position, a perspective or viewpoint, that a lack of definition should be embraced and that ambiguity presents an opportunity. Hyperdrawing has the capacity to enable and sustain drawing practices.
Drawing Disambiguation

Hyperdrawing adopts a position, a perspective or viewpoint, that a lack of definition should be embraced and that ambiguity presents an opportunity.
Drawing Disambiguation can be seen as the process of resolving the conflicts that arise when drawing is ambiguous. Our hypothesis is that Drawing Disambiguation could be established as a methodology for Hyperdrawing. The initial enquiry will take the form of a collaborative drawing, with text and image all being seen as ‘marks’, ‘lines’ and ‘gestures’ in a drawn dialogue / discourse.
