Drawing in Space


This is one of the process pictures of the construction of the framework for drawing in space.


These are the finished panels that will be hung in descending tiers for the drawing in space project.

 
This is the framework covered with cloth that will house the Asian themed panels for the drawing in space installation.  
 

All the panels are in place and the candles and branch complete the Zen quality I was looking for.

When I started this project I wanted to use the charred panels from my Quick Challenges.  What came to mind was a sense of Asian culture and a Zen quality.  The thought of a shrine or pagoda is what inspired me to use a frame and cloth to give the installation a sense of structure.  The use of the candles and mirrors was to give it that peaceful, sacred quality.  I am happy with the final project and feel it expresses the mood I was looking for.
