The Lines of Inquiry: Expanding the Boundaries of Drawing explores the diverse possibilities of drawing as a medium. It challenges the boundaries of drawing, liberating it from its conventional materiality, methodology, and established definitions. Pushing the boundaries of what is considered drawing, it integrates a range of techniques and styles, including realism and postmodern practices.

The use of charcoal, pencil, pastel, collage, and other linear approaches interweave throughout the artworks, offering new interpretations of this versatile medium. The presented artwork subjects echo the high accessibility of drawing as a contemporary medium, where artists reflect on daily life, journal their observations, and offer social commentary. This exhibition encourages viewers to confront questions such as: What is drawing? Why choose drawing? How can drawing convey a story message?
