Tim Knowles has always been one of my favourite artists, inspiring people with his quirky ways in mark making. This particular project was based around tracking the movement of a tree in the natural wind (by attaching drawing implements to the end of the branches), linking in perfectly with the idea of collecting data. Knowles has experimented with variables of tree resulting in some very contrasting marks, consequently revealing the qualities and characteristics in each one. I specifically love the change in ink density, demonstrating where the branches would retreat back to when not being carried by the wind. I felt that this specifically linked in with my project after the idea of tracking a movement, the free nature and similarities within my initial feedback week drawings. I love the idea of creating drawings mechanically, and tracking movement in different ways.
