The Hanging Garden, The Invention of Drawing
A cascading collage of layered paper cutouts, pastel, and graphite coalesce into a lush, densely textured composition that evokes both the mythic abundance of a hanging garden and the primal origins of mark-making. Hundley weaves together fragments of imagery and drawn passages to create an intricate visual tapestry that blurs the boundaries between representation and abstraction. The work pulses with an organic energy, suggesting that drawing itself—like a garden—is an act of cultivation, accumulation, and controlled chaos.
