The Blueprint Drawings [17 works]

1990

This series comprises eighteen individual drawings executed in ink on paper, arranged in a three by six grid formation on the gallery wall. Each composition features densely layered linear elements, architectural fragments, and gestural marks characteristic of the artist's graphic vocabulary. The works demonstrate a systematic exploration of spatial relationships and compositional structures through repeated motifs and interconnected linear patterns. Rendered primarily in black ink with selective use of contrasting tones, the drawings create a cohesive visual narrative when presented as an ensemble installation.
