Camberwell has a renowned tradition of drawing at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. The diversity and cross-disciplinary nature of drawing, driven by continuing rapid technological developments, invites new dialogues with the critical practitioner and poses particular questions for the artist interested in exploring their ideas through the issues and potential of drawing.
Drawing can be the simplest means by which to engage and relate to an animate world. It allows initial responses, ideas and imaginings to be manifested both materially and virtually. Engagement with drawing takes place in time, whether the duration is five minutes or five years. It allows one to see the world as it is and as it might be, to think visually and to explore visual possibilities. Drawing remains resistant to definition primarily because it is fundamental to all aspects of visual practice, two, three and four dimensionally. But drawing can be considered as 'the visual thought process' exemplified in all visual practices. In the making and placing of marks, two and three dimensionally, drawing has ultimately led us to the electronic realm, which in turn continues to discharge responsibility and incite engagement. Drawing as visual thinking, unconstrained by means or method, is both rudimentary and vital in developing human awareness of 'reality' in a synthesis of natural and artificial.

'Arriving at the image is a process, not a frozen instant. Drawing is for me about fluidity. There may be a vague sense of what you are going to draw but things occur during the process that may modify, consolidate or shed doubts on what you know. So drawing is a testing of ideas; a slow motion version of thought. It doesn't arrive instantly like a photograph. The uncertain and imprecise way of constructing a drawing is sometimes a model of how to construct meaning' (Kentridge. 1999: p27).

During this year my project have tried to develop into several issues directly in relation with figuration, abstraction, expression (gesture of the painting) and combination of different artistic materials. This is the technique part of the work, however the main subject of study where all those concepts are focused is the female figure.

The drawings I have made this year are based on a collection of photos, taken from a water-level perspective while kayaking and walking along the Thames. Engaging with the river this way I have become particularly interested in the shifting patterns of light upon water caused by riverine reflections.

The hybrid is a fictitious plant by selection of species that offers audience an experience of enigma of the possibilities of its existence. There is a sense of scientific curiosity in botanical illustration and fascination in the beauty of nature and its symbolism with a sprinkling of mythology.
