Statement for Drawing Exhibition - Trace Your Shadow With My Shoe

Imagine if you had a map of all the places you have ever been, a continuous line drawing tracing every step and every journey you have ever taken in your life. Imagine its twists and its curves as it draws patterns across the Earth. Now imagine layering this line with that of someone else, observe how your life lines converge and intersect, at times merging and at times pulling apart across countires and continents. Perhaps your lines met even before you noticed. How many people have you passed in the street who you will at some point come to know?

This exhibition is a meeting place. A gathering of artistic practices concerned with the poetry of mapping and tracing the world and our experience of it; charting thoughts, drawing ideas, capturing the essence of moments in time.
