David Connearn’s series Five Drawings is a signature exploration of his meticulous line-drawing practice, blurring the boundaries between art and meditative practice. Each drawing evolves organically, with lines added sequentially, creating a density of rhythm and texture unique to each. The series, which uses the full-size range of Rotring drawing pens, emphasizes the act of drawing as a process rather than an outcome, highlighting subtle emphasis and variation that arise from the particular circumstances of each piece. The selected works, Drawings Two and Five from the series, invite viewers to contemplate the interplay between precision and spontaneity, as the granularity of the work and its process reach their maximum intensity.
