The drawing as a map.

 

There is an intrinsic mystery in the different types of graphic representations that humanity has developed. We have not fully understood it, but within them live multiple dimensions with an enormous capacity for communication, evoking our fascination or indifference. In the FAT studio we explore drawing not as a mere representation, but as an architecture, with its rhythms, atmospheres, symbols and archetypes. It considers the material with which it was made and on which it is supported. All this has an impact on what we can communicate as draftsmen. Vindicate the draftsman and make him stop being a translator. Return to the very act of drawing a crucial element of design. It was a pleasant experience to bring the architecture of the drawings to consciousness, so that we can use it to our advantage. Deconstructing and extracting the constructive systems of the drawings and the entities or objects that are contained within. I have learned that drawings can represent an abstract idea in a very concrete way, leaving room for interpretation and imagination. Drawings can be process, tool and result. Iterative instrument of conceptual definition. All this happening even simultaneously.
