‘Fragments of a Method’ (2020-23) is a durational drawing project by Elke Finkenauer. Between 2020 and 2023, Finkenauer documented 5,279 remnants, materials and tools from her studio, guided by three rules: 1) embrace mistakes, 2) avoid new purchases, 3) bypass value-judgements and quantifiable information. Depicted in rapid, gestural marks on discarded and repurposed paper bound into 19 handmade books, the drawings are presented alongside descriptions noting subtle variations in seemingly inconsequential objects. The rules shift focus from outcome to process, creating space for improvisation, resourcefulness, and unexpected results.
This work is exhibited in Project Space 2 at Glasgow Sculpture Studios, coinciding with Glasgow Doors Open Days Festival.
