Pylon
I’m experimenting with a pen plotter in conjunction with an automatic pen in order to make these strict, geometric and minimalist abstract drawings. The process looks something like this:
Make a very small sketch, I make my sketches in an A6-sized sketchbook. Small enough that it is impossible to overload the composition with unnecessary details: must be as few forms as possible.
I digitalize, colorize, and vectorize the sketch, refining those few forms into a clean digital blueprint.
The vector data is then converted into precise instructions for the plotter.
Finally, the piece is brought back into the physical world. I always work alongside the plotter, so there is a constant manual element: adjusting the pen, the pressure, or the flow as well as cross hatching parts myself.
This one is called “Pylon”.
