Lost and found 2017

The black and white charcoal drawings, entitled Lost and Found, were created by referencing frottage drawings of keys made during the workshops conducted at Blacktown Arts Centre in 2017. The original frottage drawings were scanned and returned to the participants. The images of the keys were projected onto paper, allowing them to overlap and change in scale, fading in and out like a memory. Each key represents a moment in time; each key holds a story about a particular time and place.

Lost and Found: Charcoal on paper, 57 x 75cm each.
Exhibited: Precarious .M Contemporary gallery.
