Drawing Abstract Movement

Graphic Meditation

What if the art of movement was not only physical, but above all mental?

With basic elements of drawing such as geometric shapes, perspective and symmetries, OKUS MINDUS is a simple formula, a practice, to crystallize “mental” and unconscious movements. For abstraction is a crystallisation of one’s unconscious.
A form of meditation through drawing which is declined thanks to various media such as drawing on paper or the use of computer illustration programs.

This series consists simply of drawing with ink on paper which is then digitised.

The idea was to use all the prototypes to reach the final OKUS LAB logo to make a videography that sets in motion the evolution of this logo.

“As a choreographer, I was looking for a quick and easy way to crystallise my sensations and visualisations of movement. So I used a free app available via a digital tablet to perform a long series of ‘spirographs’ as a regular meditative exercise.”
