Drawing Time is a research project that explores the expansive range and possibilities of drawing as a historical artistic practice.
Evolving from a close examination of new and historical objects in the Sharjah Art Foundation Collection, the research-based project has assembled artworks on mediums such as paper, wood, sound and video that are examined in relation to contemporary drawing practices deeply rooted in centuries of Afro-Asian and Pacific history. Through choreographed juxtapositions, the works reflect the purpose of line, movement, performance and gesture across multiple forms of media.
