Visual Thinking: Sense of Knowing
Being one of the oldest forms of human expression, drawing is an in-between phase of disciplinary development that crystalises an artist’s ideas and imagination. “Visual Thinking: Sense of Knowing” is a group show featuring the process drawings by 11 local artists, which have rarely been seen by the general public.
For artists, creating drawings is more than an intuitive expression, which can help to bring their sensation into knowing. It is an important moment of visual thinking that captures the relationship between hands and mind, which is often a result of visualisation, de-problematisation, projection into unknown and visual communication.
The drawings in the show are chosen with the condition that the final artworks have already been successfully realised. The artists, selected based on their diversified areas of practices, include conceptual artists, sculptors, painters, performer, architect, etc, offering an extensive view of how drawings play a critical part in the realisation of a final creation.
“Visual thinking” is part of “INBETWEEN” - a key curatorial series of Comma Space for 2021-2022.
