| Title: | Extravagant Currents |
| Authors: | Fogt, Brent |
| Issue Date: | May-2007 |
| Abstract: | In this thesis, Brent Fogt explores the experiences and ideas embodied in his drawings.
Fogt draws extravagant forms that, from a distance, resemble continents, animals or
microscopic organisms. Within these forms are waves, explosions, paisleys and decorative
patterns. Closer still, the drawings house thousands of circles of varying size and line
weight. He chooses circles because they allow multiple interpretations ranging from the
microscopic to the cosmic. Fogt combines story telling and analysis to create an accurate
account of the thinking and experiments that led to these drawings, as well as situating
his work in a broader historical and cultural context. |
