ABSTRACT
The student work explores different constructions of time through careful observation and drawing of a phenomenon. The work demonstrates the role of drawing in learning about the philosophical implications of representation. These drawings explore a different realm of drawing: drawing as a record of experience and documentation of the existing, or post factum documentation. Instead, the works cast post factum documentation as a field of enquiry. In particular, they explore the documentation of phenomena as a relational drawing practice. The students undertook various documentation tasks of observed phenomena. In order to address the task of drawing constantly changing phenomena and environments, the students needed to develop a temporal logic and strategy for their series of drawings. The drawings range across scale and record different uses and occupations of the space, implying flux and movement. As the drawings are performative, the design of the strategy for the durational performance is as important as the drawing itself.
