'Walking Drawings': boekvoorstelling met Sebastiaan Van Doninck en Barbara De Coninck
‘Walking Drawings’ contains a wide selection of landscape drawings by Sebastiaan Van Doninck (b. 1979), made during several trips in the last 10 years. All drawings were created ‘en plein air’ and drawn down in black ink in notebooks. Dunes, forests, rocks, beaches are drawn in ever-changing ways but with a recognisable handwriting. Sebastiaan manages to create depth and colour purely with a black brush pen.
Barbara De Coninck writes a text to accompany the drawings and frames them in art history.
