Automatic Drawing
CASE NR.3
These automatic drawings emerge through embodied response, acting as direct translations of sensory experience into gesture, rhythm, and mark-making. Created in response to audio-tactile synaesthetic sensations experienced in specific moments, the drawings develop through intuitive, repetitive movements, often with eyes closed or guided by sound. Bypassing conscious composition, they capture fleeting sensory impressions, emotional resonances, and tactile responses in real time.
Layered lines, etched surfaces, and rhythmic marks become mappings of invisible sensory landscapes: physical traces of vibration, memory, movement, and perceptual shifts. Oscillating between control and surrender, the works explore drawing as both a recording device and a sensory conduit, where the body responds instinctively to environmental stimuli, sound, and kinaesthetic sensation.
The drawings function not as representations of external environments, but as embodied artefacts of felt experience. Through accumulation, repetition, and gesture, they seek to make tangible the ephemeral spaces between sound and touch, perception and memory, inviting viewers to engage with drawing as an immersive and sensorial language rather than a purely visual one.
