CO-CREATION

Co-creation is the first in a series of experiments in drawing’s co-creation. A drawing installation space in Sydney, composed of 70M of paper, collected marks made by multiple authors. Three drew live in the space, with five others drawing remotely: two in Wellington, one in Auckland, one in London, and one in Budapest. The installation brought together the various drawing spaces into one shared drawing, overlapping them in the installation through live projection. Drawers in the installation sketched in response to projected planetary data and physical artefacts, and online drawers responded to live camera feeds of the installation drawing as it happened. The sketches from other spaces, around the globe, were then projected into the installation and responded to by the sketchers in the installation. Several iterations created a spatial drawing composed of many marks of graphite and scrolls of paper, which were added as the drawing progressed.

INSTALLATION

Co-creation is part of the Expanded Drawing project, transdisciplinary research discovering ways of capturing intangible presences in natural phenomena. This work in the co-creation series looks to engage multiple authors, human and more-than-human, in multiple spaces, time zones, and real and digital materiality, to test drawing’s spatial, scalar, authorial and material limits.

The installation explored the influence of multiple entities on the sketch: material, human and imagined more-than-human.
