Axonography is a group that depicts the world through axonometric drawings. This drawing technique enables an exploration of the multiple layers that compose our daily life by depicting a decomposition of everyday objects and repeated activities. Axonography aims to express individual’s unique ways of seeing and expressing through a transformation of mundane subjects into a creative art work.

During IAP workshop class in January 2017, students will explore artistic interpretation and representation of everyday life through architectural drawing techniques and experiment various methods to exhibit their drawings. We intend to incorporate the result of the class to be part of an exhibition we are planning at the Wolk gallery in fall 2017.
