Drawing Machines

Session 3: August 5 - 16, 2024

Drawing Machines

In Drawing Machines, students will engage in a unique blend of art and technology by first freely expressing themselves through drawing and mark making and later conceptualizing and building a drawing machine inspired by their experiments. Students will create interactive art pieces by building Drawing Machines that translate human movements and emotions into captivating works of art. The studio serves as a platform for students to explore the convergence of artistic expression and cutting-edge technology, fostering their creativity and imagination.
