Cityscapes The series of drawings entitled Restaurant, Station, Street and Airport have evolved from a process of tracing groups of multiple projected slides taken in quick succession of four unknown individuals sighted in particular urban spaces. The built up structures of lines form layers of tracing, creating a way of slowing down these fleeting sightings, demonstrating a desire to harness each particular pocket of time. The process of drawing not only diagrammatically describes the physical space of the figures in the distinctive environments but, due to the inevitable subtle spatial distortions and to the layering of each image, evokes the particular psychological space between Goodwin and the sighted individual. The drawings were made concurrently with the development of Closer (short film), (2001) and Closer (Three screen video installation), (2002). |
