Ether Drawings by Rema Ghuloum
"Ether Drawings is a selection of daily drawings made between April 7, 2020 to April 7, 2021 by Los Angeles based artist Rema Ghuloum and includes writings by visual artist Suné Woods and visual artist/writer/activist Molly Larkey. The drawings emerged at the onset of the pandemic and recently after Ghuloum became a mother, evolving into a diaristic project chronicling time while channeling the collective energy of the moment. Ghuloum adapted her artistic practice to create small-scale daily drawings that could be made at home while sheltering in place during moments when her son slept. Like a form of daily meditation, Ghuloum produced these intimate drawings in one sitting, layering marks of color and then sanding the surface to expose their history, evoking presence and absence simultaneously."
I edited and proofed all the text, from the captions to the accompanying essays.
