Drawing a hole

    Activity: Talk or presentation Lecture and oral contribution

    Description

    How can one draw a hole? A hole is a hole in something. But the hole itself is nothing. How can a drawing represent nothing? The presentation will circle about the hole in the drawing. The paper as a hole filled up by drawing, the drawing as a hole and holes that have been drawn - holes in the paper. Through examples on how black-and-white artists draw holes and going through own visual experiments I wish to discuss how the not-represent-able can be represented through drawing.
