“Drawing has such interesting etymological roots. It’s a means to map, to draw things out, to attract and to intervene. Drawing is a gesture that leaves a mark. Michael Taussig writes about drawing as pulling something from another realm into yours, like pulling water from a well. To draw is to bring something that exists deep below on a different stratum to the surface. Félix González-Torres demonstrates this so well in his 'Bloodworks' pieces, where he draws on and with haematology. The act of taking and measuring blood, and the effect that it had on his ability to live and make sense of life, are central elements in these drawings.”
