What is the underlying driving purpose or "thought-framework" for making a mark or image on a surface or in a space? Can "intent" include the intention of having no intent? How much does habit, convention or chance dictate our action and how much comes from an original and personal sense of expressed understanding? How much comes from the unconscious or irrational fabric of our experience? Are there other ways to make a line than with a #2 pencil?This exhibition is intended to invite thoughtful (and/or feeling-full) exploration of these and other such questions. In particular, however, we hope this challenge will nurture examination of what is habit and convention, ... and what is not.
