Artist Alison Turnbull uses found sources such as architectural plans, scientific diagrams and star charts as the basis for creating abstract work. This workshop will follow the same material processes Turnbull uses in her own paintings and drawings, with a focus on templates, stencils, tracing paper, rulers and different geometric drafting tools.
Drawing is central to Turnbull’s practice – often creating tension between what is found and what is drawn, between the mass-produced and the handmade. Her latest exhibition, Family Resemblance, has just opened at Matt’s Gallery in London, and runs until 9 November.
