The Making and the Breaking

It's about the way that hands create things by both building and breaking. In order to make a drawing, ink lines and a picture must be created, but a pristine piece of paper is destroyed. When I work I use an xacto blade to cut and slice and discard as much as I use a brush and ink to draw. Hands can build and destroy and both are equally energetic, justifiable - or condemnable - practices.
