Scorched Lines

These drawings are the result of my first experiments with using a soldering iron as a pen. 

Echoing the retinal imprint that registers the instant you shut your eyelids, they explore the impressions of landscapes burnt into the memory, fixing this photographic echo into an outline scorched onto paper. 

Evocations rather than depictions, they are meditations on the cadences of landscape, and how their rhythms unfold in the mind.
