The Draughtsman’s utopia
Tecnica: Graphite pencil on paper
I was thinking and analyzing a lot, starting with Renaissance concepts, till the contemporary ones. Finally, I decided to create an image based, in some postmodern way, on the concepts and aesthetics of The Draughtsman’s Contract by Peter Greenaway, a utopia from the late 17th century. A utopia that draws itself and the matter of fact is essentially impossible, because utopia is a place or some construction that can not exist. But we still draw it. My utopia is basically the artistic one.
