Drawing#20 - #21


Join Stichting Nac and Paula Petroll on the shortest day of this year to
enjoy the magic of the fight of sunlight against darkness in her new
installation.

Paula Petroll is the current guest of Around the Corner,
Nac international residency, and will present a different work for
each month of her stay in Rotterdam. Her artistic practice stems
from drawing and experiments its potential through the use of lines,
empty spaces and resonances.

To underline,
to outline.

To create the possibility of a landscape with the least
necessary meanings.
To form a construct that exists within its own environment.
To respond to present site characteristics.
To interweave imprints of structures from the past, from memory.
To draw the horizon without drawing the horizon.

Amplifying the sunlight until the boundaries between canvas and
environment are blurred, obverted. Engraving given structures
with
semiotic echoes of a moving mindscape; thoughtshapes of an
almost
tangible vocabulary that is geographically anchored in the site,
enhancing the present with past as far as the viewer can
physically as
well as emotionally interconnect with the drawing.
