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 important questions: How do we interpret their presence? What actions do we take in response? Surprisingly, these drawings have also evolved into a 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 faced threats from the police.
