Art and the Void – From ‘Behind the Line’ Exhibition

Line - Mel Cross Art

Art fills the gap between the voids.  Between nothing; emptiness.  It’s grasping to hold an idea in time and space.  Suspending it before it goes from void to void.  A flash.  A moment.  It is a moment between placing the pencil on the paper and taking it off again; captured.  The line captures the space between the voids.  The thought between the emptiness; between moments; between time.  We pin time down in graphite and paint.
