DRN Temporal Drawing Events
Organised by the Drawing Research Group, Loughborough University
Continuing with the annual Drawing Research Network events, the Drawing Research Group at Loughborough University are pleased to announce the upcoming third event of ‘Temporal Drawing’ online events ‘Experience'. The series of free events aim to explore the notion of temporal drawing, by which we suggest that temporality is not only inherent in drawing, both as process and as a product, but also as its fundamental condition. Speakers for each of the events have been selected to offer differing perspectives of themes emerging in response to the call for papers around the notion of temporal drawing. We would like to invite delegates to the third event in the series:
‘Experience’
11am (BST) 21st April 2021
This panel brings together three researchers employing drawing to examine the subjective experience of time. Dr Samantha Lynch will consider how drawing reflects and intensifies this experience, sharing a body of test drawings to ask how multiple temporalities can manifest simultaneously through the drawing process, and reflecting on the wider implications of these insights for creative methods in research practice. While Lynch’s research seeks connections between architecturally propositional drawings (which propose future spaces) and the drawing process itself (which instigates imagined futures), the research of Dara Rigal looks to the moving spaces of London Underground trains, using drawing in motion to spatialize the fluid connections between internal human rhythms and the external motion that surrounds them. Rigal’s drawing practice opens up a liminal space between these entwined rhythms, offering a phenomenological counterpoint to externally calculated clock-time that takes into account the bodily experience of time as a viscous material that expands, contracts and thickens as we move through it. The mutable tissue of the human body offers a third site of temporal expression in the research of Dr Jenny Wright, who will present drawings and diagrams charting the spread and development of Alzheimer’s disease, and its fluctuating effects upon the sufferer’s comprehension of time and space. Wright’s research, part of a collaboration with medical educators at Kings College London, explores the potential of diverse drawing media including etching, graphite and ink to compress on paper the corrosive interaction of pathogens and tissue surface over time. Dr Tamarin Norwood, a post-doctoral researcher at Loughborough University, will chair the event.
