Life Drawing Triptych






















This triptych of drawings work well together. The one in the middle is a charcoal life drawing. This is a particularly meaningful and strong piece of work because it has Martin Luther King’s famous ‘I had a dream’ speech projected on to the models body, creating both a black and a white figure within the same frame. I also like how the typography becomes distorted as it is projected onto the curves of the human figure. In contrast the other two drawings are light in colour. Using a combination of mediums such as watered down ink and tissue while a stick dipped in to ink creates the bolder lines.
Dimensions: W40cm X H60cm (Left and Right) W60cm X H84cm (Centre)
