Transcription // Non-Stop Drawing Action
The gallery was left exactly as it was: on the table sits the last doodle of an exhausted mind. Upon entering the small room, you feel as though you are walking onto a crime scene. You can’t help but try to solve the puzzle, reconstructing what the artist must have been feeling. Olga Diego’s experiment shows us that putting the creative process under extreme conditions can access ideas buried deep in our psyche.
Olga Diego spent 58 hours in the SCAN Project Room in London, drawing non-stop while taking care of her vital needs.
“At one point the drawings were answering questions my subconscious was asking. It made me feel like a Shaman accessing knowledge”.
