the task was to take five objects
rearrange them
come up with something different
and make a drawing
then there’s the medium
charcoal
a whole world in itself
my objects were taken from my space
and rearranged
but somehow recreated
my actual space
the big things moved into the foreground
the rooftops moved into the background
just as they are in my space
a revelation of something unhidden
a failure of surrealism
but still looking a bit strange
not like a photo of the space
it has a kind of claustrophobia
that you can find in surrealism
and the background, unrendered
actually largely erased
could be another drawing
could be a painting
could contradict the whole thing
