Confession Drawings

Encounter.
Reflection.
Confession.
Drawing.

Confession Drawings is an ongoing conceptual drawing series in which encounters with others give rise to confessions. 

The confession emerges from lived experience; the drawing gives it another form.

The practice asks a simple question:

What happens when a confession becomes an image?
