Charcoal on paper
From the exhibition Between Forms
There are times when thought stops feeling linear.
Ideas overlap. Decisions that should be simple become strangely difficult. One thought interrupts another before it has fully formed.
Interrupted Thought emerged from that state.
The face is present, but it doesn’t quite hold its boundaries. Lines cross, break and interfere with one another. The upper part of the figure seems to pull away from itself, while the darker marks below provide an uneasy anchor.
I am interested in what happens to form when internal experience begins to alter it. In this drawing, it is thought itself that seems unable to settle.
There is a particular kind of exhaustion in trying to find clarity when the mind is crowded — when concentration fragments, decisions stall and thoughts arrive faster than they can be resolved.
And yet the figure remains.
The face is still visible through the interruption.
Throughout Between Forms, the figure moves in and out of definition. The body strains. Thought fragments. Form becomes uncertain and, eventually, begins to gather itself again.
Interrupted Thought sits within that uncertain space — somewhere between having a thought and being able to hold onto it.
