water and fire drawing

water and fire drawing on pigmented paper.

bird 2 “bird 2”

Fire and water drawing is a new way of drawing, I use a (own made pigmented) paper, and draw with water on it, creating a relief with the use of the brush. The brush and the water create paper waves and a soft relief is formed, "sculpture" is born of a mutual collaboration between human handwriting and that of nature.
Using fire flames to continue the composition.
Bringing together fire and water, the constructed and the destroyed, the real and the unreal.
