Graphite and Ink on 240gm paper, 42×29.7cms
water moteur (developed through Drawing with Water for the UK Drawing Correspondence Residency) is a drawing practice that treats water not as a subject to depict, but as an active instrument that generates its own marks, rhythms, and decisions.
Working in graphite and ink, I read the glare, shadows and eddies as pulses and repeating behaviours to translate them into a notation system for water.
“Motor” functions as both engine and motive force. The work proposes water as a kind of choreographer, with your notations acting like a score that maps temporal changes and intensities. In this way, water moteur sits between observation and invention: part field study, part score-making, part translation.
