Drawing Routine (2016-)

In 2016 I decided to set my daily meditation practices as the center of my art making. Automatic drawings produced right after the sittings are documenting each session.

The focus of the routine is in meditating on the idea of work, labour and action in the time of ecological collapse and climate change.

How should one consider qualities such as active and passive when action and change are needed in a culture defined by constant acceleration of processes?
