Spatial Momentums

A fixed and final architecture often follows the act of drawing, but what if architecture were to remain a drawing, with the vitality of an open sketch? Drawing brings performative gestures to life through records of its making—its traces. This research experiments with these traces, using their performative possibility to re-frame and alter conceptions of architecture, and in doing so, offers new perspectives on urban space. It is a contemporary critique on the relation between drawing and built space; it engages drawing’s capacity to be an ongoing, open process and directs it towards architecture, in an effort to discover sketch-like performative possibilities.
