Mindbook

Mindbooks are sketchbooks of my thoughts. Alongside a diary, I process my thinking by drawing — the pictures are mostly abstract, often without names. I want to give every viewer, including myself, free scope for interpretation: there is no right or wrong.

Mindbook — wide abstract ink drawing across a spread

The basic idea is “just getting started” — not planning every detail in advance, not knowing beforehand what will appear. I find that process exciting: while drawing I keep reorientating myself, as the whole work shifts slightly after every black line on the paper.

Description

Mindbooks are sketchbooks of my thoughts. Alongside a diary, I process my thinking by drawing. The pictures are mostly abstract, often without names — I want to give every viewer, including myself, free scope for interpretation. There is no right or wrong.

The basic concept is “just getting started”: not having to plan every detail in advance, not knowing what you want to create. I find that process exciting. While drawing, I always have to reorientate myself as to how to proceed, as the overall work changes slightly after every black line on the paper.

The sketchbook is in A5 format. I use black ink liners and felt-tip pens, occasionally with accents like gold — so it stays compact and I can take it with me wherever I go.
