This is a collaborative drawing project I have been involved with. Artist Janis Bowley initiated this project inspired by Durer's drawing of a Rhinoceros made purely from second hand accounts. The Rhino project takes this idea and translates this into collaborators describing a room to each other which they have never seen, each then makes a drawing of the described room. This is my interpretation of Rosemary Robinson's room, a shipping container in a field.
I have greatly enjoyed this project and felt the connection drawing gives you to place and people. As I drew the room I felt I was revealing layers of place and in a funny sort of way connecting with my collaborator too.
