Drawing is a spontaneous way to explore shapes, structures, and thoughts without having to worry about scale, the pull of gravity, whether a piece can stand up, or the material limitations that may dictate form. It is also a process that helps springboard ideas and can expose hidden concepts; it is a point of dialogue between the artist, the ideas they are exploring, and a precursor or animator to the physical making of an object. Craft artists have long used drawings as a means to design their work or investigate ideas, but viewers are seldom given the opportunity to view the personal explorations that support a finished piece.

In this curated exhibition 5 artists will exhibit their drawings and explorations alongside a completed work, offering the viewer a glimpse into their processes, and the interesting dialogue that occurs between the birth of an idea, through its many ramblings and on to the finished form.
