‘Unwrapping the Line’ has been brought together by Charlotte Hodes, Senior Research Fellow in Drawing at London College of Fashion with the support of Professor Stephen Farthing and the Centre for Drawing, University of the Arts London. In this exhibition Dr. Francis Geesin, Reader in Materials and Textiles has taken photographs of her sculptures printed on cloth. These works reveal the making process where the drawn lines are made using conductive yarns to create small intricate sculptural forms. Charlotte Hodes’ digital drawings create a tension between the line depicting female figure motifs, pattern diagrams and textiles in the LCF archive library. Hormazd Narielwalla, PhD student presents digitally printed drawings for the exhibition. These delicate images contain a sense of time passing through history in his reinterpretation of a female journal; Jeremy Radvan, Associate Lecturer uses the graphic line as an expressive mark, which embodies movement. His digitally drawn line is made in response to and as an echo of the female dancer. Whilst his process is centered on his own computer programming there is a strong element of intuition and play in his drawings. Jenny Shellard, Course Director Surface Textiles presents a woven textile. The line is realized through the weave itself but it takes form as an outcome of light projection. The elusive nature of the way in which the colour comes into being adds to the mysterious and rich physical presence of the line.
