Abstract

This paper explores my own art making practice and its overlap with my meditation practice, looking at the emergence of meditation as “thoughtless” action as I make through drawing and animating. By entering a meditative state while drawing/animating, I am able to make without overly thinking, being completely immersed within the process. Making 16mm scratch-films and cells while in this state, I aim to create a meditative space where viewers become as immersed in the work as I do while making it.
