In the case of Sarah E-MAIL Woodfine, Bachelard’s maxim is entirely apt. Woodfine’s drawings, often contained [email protected] within specially constructed structures that act both as frames and as physical PHONE extensions of the drawing itself, operate as miniature worlds, self-contained systems +44 20 7735 8292 through which a series of vignettes are staged for the viewer’s careful consideration. CELL The deceptive, intense surface of Woodfine’s drawings is one point of attraction; +44 78 0148 1727 a second stage of intensification and of bringing into focus is enacted by Woodfine’s CONTACT NAMES elaborate framing. One may therefore regard these ambivalent drawing-objects as Danielle Arnaud a bi-part lens through which one may view a corner, fragment or snapshot of another Rosanna Puyol universe. The environment presented may be regarded as a translation or transfor- mation of selected aspects of the world we frequently take for granted.
