Speculative technical drawings for Memory Tools

By Lynn Reed-Golden 2021
The concept behind these speculative technical drawings is related to memory processes and woodworking terms. The woodworking element is autoethnographic: watching my father in his wood workshop and my collection of his tools. This part of my practice deepens the narrative methodology; with this element, the work becomes more layered. There is an element of physicality in my drawing methods that correspond with my making practice. The action of drawing heightens my awareness of the narrative.
