This
is how the Drawing Centre introduces Ferrara’s work:
‘Lines consists of eight wall drawings, each anchored by
imagined architecture or architectural elements along with lists of film titles
rendered in Morse code. The Morse code acts as a foundation or band,
interrupting the drawn architecture or adding another layer over the entire
surface. The underlying theme of the individual drawings is reflected both in
the architectural element or shape dominating the drawing as well as by the
Morse code text, which consists of curated lists of films Ferrara began
compiling in 1993 that reflect her life-long passion for film. Vampire
Towers, for example, depicts nine abstract, dark towers that emerge out of
a foundation of vampire film titles veiled in Morse code. This commission
reflects the ongoing evolution of Ferrara’s work, incorporating elements of the
established language of her sculpture and public art works and bringing them to
the walls of The Drawing Center.’
The possibilities inherent in thinking about proposals for
the exhibition of your work as works of art in their own right are very rich.
From artist’s books to wall pieces, there are many opportunities to extend the
processes behind your work out into the exhibition itself. This also gives you
the opportunity to address your audience and help them come to terms with what
your work is about. If people have a better grasp of the working processes that
lie beneath your work, it is more likely they will appreciate it.
