Description:


SUITE AUCTION DRAWINGS is a series of ACTIONS in several art auction houses, I focus during the actions, in the act of drawing in situ. The result is graphite drawings on paper and records videos.

The project involves live drawing sessions during the duration of the auctions, in the space where they happen. The drawings take signs from the performative and economic event. Data and prices of the artworks sold are included in the drawings.
Mimesis and camouflage are the rules of these auctions/actions that are inspired by Courtroom Drawings and that articulate their routines using the epiphenomena of the art auction.
