Abacus
Performative drawing piece, 72″h x 110″w x 20″l, ink on adding machine paper on steel armature, 2012
Thinking about ink drawings as an artistic practice and a way of marking time, Abacus was a performative art piece created for The Brightest Party Ever for Leadership AustinĀ at the Long Center, and then showed at Austin City tramadol for dogs online Hall. Using adding machine paper and a steel armature to create a counting machine, individual ink drawings were created along the length of the paper, adding together the shapes and the time. Long strips of drawings were given to viewers as a memento of time spent and created.
