Hotel Drawing

Mixed media on paper 1993

11.6x 7.9”

A selection of these drawings is on view at the Portland Art Museum right now!

This drawing brings together the weird combination of a man and a chair, superimposing the chair on the man. Layering something that usually supports the body on a depiction of the body could be an interesting bridge. Also using materials not intended for art making, like hotel stationary, creates an intriguing conversation between two distinct elements.
