Breathing Line
Work developed at INCLASIFICABLE art residency
Cazalla de la Sierra, Sevilla . June-July 2019
An experiment based on a Japanese brush for calligraphy.
At my last visit to Japan, I fell in love with a brush (that happens, right?).
Loved its sensitivity, fluidity and expressiveness.
After filling many notebooks with a continuous line that reflected my breathing while drawing, I wondered what would happen with a change to a larger format.
For that I had recreate the brush and draw on the floor barefooted.
Each piece is a record of a different rhythm and time and invites you to follow the line and replicate the cadence of each breath.
