In her essay, 'Drawn Space', Charlie Levine tells us how this work by Vishwa encourages you to literally enter how she sees the world. Life-size drawings of a place you remember but have never been to, you begin your journey around her work by walking among the pages of a book and into the folds of a story. There is a purposeful lack of human occupancy in her work and this does not mean she is trying to highlight the overlooked or forgotten; rather how the signifiers within the works showcase something removed or what was. This piece creates a dialogue between drawing and experiential space. The installation of this work emphasises the method of the creation, pages ripped from a book and hung, a dismantled object becoming
a dismantled installation.
a dismantled installation.
