I created a series of three drawings on gray A1 paper to demonstrate the positive and negative evocations of brutalism. Visually inspired by Sol LeWitt’s isometric wall drawings and Sean Scully’s notion of ‘emotional abstraction’ demonstrated in his Landline series, the contrast of the harsh concrete textures and sharp lines with the visually appealing geometric nature of the forms, enabled me to prompt viewers to question the beauty, or lack of beauty, in the brutal forms.

Created throughout 2022 for my GCSE Art & Design project.
