Sketches: Lines and Forms in Space

Charley Peters, Untitled Sketches (2012), Graphite on Paper

A new series of drawings exploring the spatial relationships of directional lines within the paper plane. Using a variety of media including graphite, tape, acrylic and graphite powder, depth and perspective is suggested through deliberately restrained drawing methods in these small works on paper.

Using powdered graphite on a variety of treated grounds (including glue, tape and spray fixative) irregular and unpredictable textures are created to introduce an extra level of experience to the drawings, encouraging a contrasting relationship between precise, controlled marks and randomly created areas of varying tonality.

Charley Peters, Untitled Sketches (2012), Graphite on Paper

Preliminary works on paper which explore repetitive lines in space. The lines were then manipulated by creating additional folded lines in the paper, disrupting the drawing surface and the direction of the lines trajectory.

Charley Peters, Untitled Sketches (2012), Graphite on Black Paper

New drawings exploring repetitive graphite lines on black paper. On the dark surface the graphite drawings appears nearly invisible when viewing them directly from the front, but when seen from other viewing positions the lines catch the light with a metallic shimmer.
