draw 2
The second exhibition at Cross St Studios organised by Aleksandra Petrovic, draw 2 continued its deep exploration into drawing as a versatile medium, expanding beyond individual drawings, sketchbooks and loose ephemera, to also include video, animation and printmaking.
This collection of works was conceived as a "library" that blended pop culture with personal honesty and absurdity, encouraging viewers to freely stitch together their own interpretations. Accompanying the show was a book-size catalogue with reprints of the exhibited artworks and a text by Rachel Redwood, which examined drawing as a primal form of mark-making and non-verbal communication.
