Time Drawings

Time Drawings continue to explore the experience of patterning in public spaces. By highlighting real-time, these drawings invite viewers to become part of the artwork. Once recognized, they raise relevant questions: How do we interpret time's presence? What actions do we take in response? Surprisingly, these drawings are also received as performance, revealing people's perceptions of activities in public spaces. Reactions to an adult drawing with chalk on the sidewalk have been mixed. While most responses are encouraging, I have encountered questions about permission, been advised to return to my neighborhood, and even threatened by the police.
