Drawing without words

How can we communicate/connect with one another without using words?

We invited 18 art students to a silent drawing party: to begin a collective exploration of the power and limits of drawing.

Research interests:

1. Drawing as listening
2. Thinking through drawing
3. How it feels to be silent and draw together
4. Effects of imposing limitations on human communication
5. Insights into the origins of verbal language – why did we develop speech?
