ART Habens
Doria Sharra
The formalistic issues of drawing and
painting are important to me, and I find
them inseparable from other aspects of
the artistic research I set out to do. I
build my compositions according the
narrative I`m dealing with, and I
employ the tonal composition - the
contrast, the placement of the lights
and the darks, etc. to serve the way in
which I want to deal with the subject
matter.
I usually choose my material acoording
to the conceptual framework of the
series I`m working on. In my previous
project Your KLI is Wonderful! for
example, I was exploring questions
related to desire and to the act of
collecting and therefore I chose to use
sharpened charcoal on papaer, that
can give a very sensual and carnal
effect.
