Coastline
2009
Pencil and gouache on plywood
48″x240″
Exhibited in Somewhere Along the Line, curated by Ingrid Jenkner and Katie Belcher.
A straight line is drawn, a coin is flipped, a die is rolled, and the line is broken into two. For Coastline, these simple rules constrained the generative process of the drawing. Within these limits the complexity of the edge grew as the progress slowed exponentially. This piece was exhibited in a group drawing show at the Mount St. Vincent University Art Gallery titled Somewhere Along the Line, curated by Ingrid Jenkner and Katie Belcher. Participating artists include: Lucie Chan, David Dahms, Michelle Gay, Massimo Guerrera, Sophie Jodoin, Audrey Nicoll, Ed Pien and Lucy Pullen.
