"Street Drawings"
Selected images; each drawing chalk on paper, 10" x 20", 2017.

During most of 2017 I did not have a studio. The work I made from January through September was created in the streets. I decided I would make the same sort of drawing I might make in the studio, but I would do it in the urban landscape. All of the drawings were diptychs: a panel of imagery was juxtaposed with a panel of writing. The writings that accompanied the drawings were spontaneous on-the-spot efforts to decode the drift of imagery, sometimes a record of things I heard around me while working, and sometimes incomprehensible bubbling up of language - an effort of the images to speak.
