Drawing Sessions
Drawing Sessions is an
interactive performance with Odette Graskie. As an artist, prone to covertly
drawing faces in populated public spaces, it has been difficult to come across
her preferred subject in a time where public spaces are scarcely populated, and
the public is permanently masked.
Seeing someone’s face
is now a rare privilege reserved for one’s nearest and dearest. With complete
COVID compliance, Odette asks you to expose your most guarded area – your face.
Sitting 2 metres apart
and separated by a screen, Odette will draw a study of the participant’s face
to be used in her new work.
And yes, there is
something for you – after she has completed the drawing, you will receive a
limited edition print of her work, which you can frame, stick on your fridge or
use as a bookmark.
Sessions will be five
minutes long starting at 11 am on the 9th of October 2021.
