Perceptual Paradox

“Perceptual Paradox” is a series of black and white, geometrically inspired graphite and charcoal drawings, which explores how we perceive visual information. Drawings can be stagnant snapshots but we rarely experience visual information as stationary. We move or the scene changes which alters the experience. Drawing also gives us the opportunity to distort our perception, which makes us question reality, creating a paradox of perception and possibly creating new opportunities.
