This drawing titled Study 001conveys a sense of movement and dynamism through the expressive use of charcoal. The intertwining figures capture the interaction between space and gesture, with these figures not defined in a conventional way, but presented in a transitory state, where the drawing seems to extend beyond the page.
Through the tension created between the use of light and shadow, the drawing gives the impression that the figures are developing, as if evolving right before our eyes. There is no fixed image, only a constant flow of shapes that transform, fade, and strengthen as the material accumulates on the paper.
The absence of superfluous details brings the essence of the stroke to the forefront, inviting the viewer to contemplate the creation process itself. This study is a reflection on the imperfect beauty of the unfinished, an exercise that highlights the dynamic and constant transformation, encouraging the thought that true art is not only the result but also everything that happens in its making.
