Being There: Conversational Drawing in a Non-Place

A text that was introduced to us in the illustration core texts lecture. I found this particularly interesting, and it could relate to the meaning side of my research, and how meaning = content over appearance.

I could relate Gannon's discussion on drawing, to my exploration of authenticity in visual art/making.
