Through drawing Chloé Masi explores the potential of sketching.

Chloé’s sketches are made up of essential lines and marks.

Chloé explores the ability of the sketch to capture a first-person point of view, including one’s observations, past memories and future imaginings simultaneously.

Secondly, she explores the potential of the specific materials that the sketch involves -the paper and the pencil – and the connection between these materials and their abilities to capture intuitiveness, immediateness and directness.
