DRAW Space are excited to present Stephanie Houghton / VIBES. Opening 6-8pm Thursday 18 September and running until 5pm Sunday 12 October, Melinda Hunt (curator) and the DRAW Space board invite you to join the artist to celebrate this remarkable exhibition.
VIBES presents a selection of drawings made to affect the viewer's perceptual capacities. Drawing on art historical precedents such as resonance and wonder, large scale works in watercolour and graphite integrate material sensitivity with technical ability to create drawings that encourage slow looking, resonance, and contemplative experience.
Viewing Houghton's work may be compared to the experience of encountering the work of Agnes Martin:
You can drop through her paintings into the memory of sensation. Hers is a non-illusionistic window onto the art experiences we have almost subliminally in our lives, far away from art objects.
Kasha Linville, 'Agnes Martin: An Appreciation,' Artforum, Summer (1971): 72
The works are produced through the creation of systems that draw on both holistic and scientific information resulting in subtle, carefully constructed drawings that foreground the artists dedication to a practice of enquiry, of patience and of attentiveness.
