dc.description.abstract	The small ink sketch formed part of a larger body of work in the exhibition “Enfolding”. The work simply captures the whirlpool of folded sheets at the foot of the hospital bed. The lines and patterns traced the physical form of sheets that cover a patient, reflecting care. In describing the edges of the sheets with white ink over brown washes, the drawing caresses the form and the woven texture of the cloth. The drawing also seems to be the portrayal of the emotional vortex experienced by people undergoing trauma. Technically it wavers between sold form and loosely searching marks, reflecting the unfinished state of emotion and the restlessness embedded in body and mind when experiencing loss.	en
