A line drawing by Nasreen Mohamdi. Nasreen employ all the qualities of line - spacing, weight, length, dashing - to evoke a sense of rhythm and depth.
If anyone is interested in finding out more about her drawings, here's a link to a catalogue of her work.

Slow House


Drawing by Diller & Scofidio - windscreen to window screen.
