Charley Peters, Praxis (2011), Ink on Paper, 70 x 100 cm

The drawing above marks a development in the new Praxis series, as the work is created on a larger scale (70 x 100cm) in the studio. The drawing was generated by rendering straight lines, which were  drawn systematically underneath each other.

Sketches

Untitled Drawing (2011) (Detail), Ink on Paper

These are a selection of early sketches for a body of work where I use a repetitive line drawing system. The process of drawing is similar to the way in which the print head of an inkjet printer produces images, methodically sweeping from left to right. By applying subtle changes in pressure to the drawing instruments and slightly varying the angle of the successive lines, the resulting drawings gain movement and depth.

Three newly completed drawings from the ongoing series Signal to White Noise Ratio. These works are part of a body of small drawings that explore the tonal qualities of interrupted visual surfaces.
