The Drawing Experiment

The Drawing Experiment | Chastain Arts Center

2016

An ephemeral, site-specific drawing exhibition showcased the creative explorations of twelve Atlanta-based artists. This dynamic presentation featured Jessica Caldas, Elyse Defoor, William Downs, Jessica Scott Felder, Angus Galloway, Benjamin Jones, Marie Mathews, Julio Mejia, Yanique Norman, Joe Peragine, Kellie Romany, and Karl Kroeppler.

Each artist was allocated six square feet of wall space to express their creativity using only dry media over a three-week period. This unique opportunity fostered a vibrant atmosphere where artistic freedom thrived, resulting in a diverse array of ephemeral drawings. These intricate pieces, rich in detail and imagination, were on view for a limited time—just six weeks—making every moment spent with them all the more special.
