In March 2026, DRAW Space is excited to present FILAMENT

FILAMENT explores the line as a fundamental structure which enables the break down and reconstitution of three-dimensional forms. While the two-dimensional line has a well established history of mark-making and alluding to mass and depth, the three-dimensional line has a genealogy in craft, sculpture and high end technology. Processes such as weaving, knitting, 3D printing and laser scanning are capable of creating complex form by processing one line at a time.

Anthropologist Tim Ingold sees lines as fundamental to all human activity. Stories, speech, growth and travel generate traces which represent change and movement. Human and non-human elements interweave, cross and tangle with others. This exhibition explores this perspective in art-making, framing the line as a primary building block for three dimensional form.

The exhibition features the work of artists Benjamin Chevalier, Sadhbha Cockburn, Jacqueline Driver, Sarah Eddowes, Annabelle McEwen, Shane Nicholas, Mandy Robinson and Maya Stocks.
