‘Into the Sun’
A new collection of pen-and-ink washes on 300 gsm paper. ‘Into the Sun’ comprises over 350 drawings that narrate the journey of a camel and its rider seeking peace and tranquillity in a vast desert. Along their path, they meet fellow travellers and exotic creatures. This ongoing project is inspired by the artist’s granddaughter, Alba. The drawings are presented in non-chronological order. Click on the link to the Work Archive for the complete collection. Viewing the drawings on a desktop/laptop is recommended. The artwork is envisioned as a gallery-style presentation, with individually framed drawings displayed in 10 wall-mounted blocks of 30 to 40 pieces each, arranged approximately 5 cm apart.
