Description:
Inspired by the early Surrealists, An Incongruous Manifestation is my earliest example of Automatism, a spontaneous method of drawing that has become a staple in my creative arsenal.
In essence, Automatism is a process of creating art without preconceived ideas, conscious thought or intention; instead relying on impulse and (unconscious) associations to arrive at a completed image.
For the most part, these pieces can seem (or are) random (as the title of this drawing suggests). However, this process does have utility as well; when utilized to spark creativity; or, when taking a deep dive into one's inner workings, without the filters of the ego (which often sensors or omits what is uncomfortable).
