Croquis de chaleur, 2012-13


Musée Jenisch Vevey, installation view, drawings on thermal paper, executed with metal nails and heated objects.


Size: 21 x 13cm to 32 x 21cm

This series is the result of a drawing performance, where I draw with various heated metal objects on thermal paper. The drawing is done very quickly and ends when the object is cooled, or when I can't hold it in my hand, due to the heat.

Below is a selection from a series of 200 drawings.
