Dessiner met une ligne autour d'une idée
Drawing is putting a line around an idea
Henri Matisse
Drawing is used across a wide range of disciplines as a foundational way of learning, sharing and generating knowledge. It is exploratory and experimental, a means of sketching out plans and articulating ideas, line by line.
The exhibition A Line Around an Idea features work by contemporary artists and architects whose practices demonstrate how drawing can be a creative - and disruptive - force, a way of knowing the world through observation, but also a medium that can redraw the lines to present different histories and representations.
A Line Around An Idea is supported by The Arts Council Ireland, University College Cork and private philanthropy through Cork University Foundation.
