GMN Projects Presents: Draw Me Project

Draw Me Series

The idea of the Draw Me Series is to create exchange amongst strangers by using the simple model of portraiture. This piece is intended to bridge those boundaries between stranger. I have offered this collaborative intervention to many people across the country and world through the use of Craigs list.. After I receive 100 participants/authors I will seek out publishers. Upon publishing, any proceeds will be redistributed back out to the collaborators/authors. Here is a brief breakdown of the process:




This is a conceptual piece that evolves many elements of form and content. Here are the steps:




1. You will need a sketch pad and drawing pencils. A camera of some sort.

2. Meet someone that you are not familiar with and allow them to draw your portrait.

3. Then write about the transaction (one page doubled space)

4. Photograph the performance (have a third party take the picture)

5. Bring back the following




· Drawing

· Photo

· Narrative (one doubled spaced page)




The collection is more of reflection of authorship than it is representation. The collection of information will be formatted into a coffee table book.
