Drawing machine that slowly reveals an image of the world viewed through the tireless eye of technology. It constantly adds traces of material, demonstrating that the drive for immediacy is not inherent in technology.
"At first you question the model (the seven irises) in order to discover lines, shapes, tones that you can trace on the paper. The drawing accumulates the answers. Also, of course, it accumulates corrections, after further questioning of the first answers. Drawing is correcting. [...] At a certain moment - if you're lucky - the accumulation becomes an image." John Berger, 2011
This project was part of a series of three investigations about perception and image creation made during my last year as a Parson's for my MFA thesis. It also was the kick of a decades long interest for drawing machines and digital creative tools. Kicking off a multitude of explorations between analog and digital techniques.
