Drawing in and out of the Box This is the first in a series of collaborations between the drawing and digital arts programs in the Department of Art and Art History at Florida International University. As an introduction we have chosen an initiative and response relationship between a high activity intuitive workshop and a digital arts group working on a wide arc of disciplines ranging from video and computer generated imagery to mobile electronic mark making machines. The perverse marriage of a dirty, physically exhausting, emotionally demanding activity with essentially clean controlled technologically driven systems and approaches seems destined to failure. Yet what transpired was an invigorating and exciting experience which established an engrossing state of creative fluidity and synthesis extending the boundaries of both areas. In a relatively short period of time the students explored aspects such as large wall paintings and drawings, video, installation, performance, kinetics, computer graphics and public art. The work began on walls and computer screens transmuted between several studios and eventually was projected into the public domain. This was the introductory session, It was merely a working diagram lasting less than a day, but it did give us a glimpse of the possibilities. The next session will be much bigger, longer and deeper with a greater community involvement and a more ambitious conceptual agenda. Clive King (drawing) Jacek J. Kolasinski (digital arts) |
