Drilling Field Sara-Jeanne BourgetVancouver, BC Dimension 45" x 30" Médium Charcoal and soft pastel monotype, relief ink, on Stonehenge paper I use drawing and printmaking interchangeably while employing a cyclical process that captures and recycles the methods and materials inherent to my practice. Drilling Field emerges from a drawn and hand cut paper matrix ran through the press on an inked surface, resulting in a monotype. The motif of the hole is reminiscent of my fascination with woodpeckers’ interventions on surfaces and the careful study of their mark-making (hole-pecking) technique. My close examinations of the surfaces they activate and mine are mirrored in how I use the hole as a repeated shape.
