The Sound of Drawing

This paper is based on my artistic practice, which has focused on exploring drawing and its limits. It is based on the pieces The Sound of Drawing , from 2019, and Twin Drawings , from 2020 to 2021, which contemplate a relational dimension between drawing and sound. These works sought to expand the limits of the drawing experience in its relationship with listening and mental recreation through words. The expansion of drawing and the attention to the sound dimension has made evident the ambiguity regarding the identity of drawing and the pieces themselves present, raising pertinent questions. These include: how does the drawing manifest itself? Is it to be understood as a mark on a surface? As an act? As an image or sound? This practice and these pieces aim to attempt to understand the delineation through which Drawing reveals itself. The conclusion is that the hybridization of processes is conducive to creating composite, indeterminate or ambiguous works between the field of drawing and other domains. The sound, like the trace, is a component of drawing that is revealed in the process when it is touched on a surface and becomes visible and audible. That drawing develops in transit, crossing the boundaries of fields, materialities and spatial dimensions to potentially assert itself as a work of art, and that since the origin, as described by Pliny, this transitus is already extensive to Drawing (name and verb).
